Libbie's Song

If it wasn't for your golden hair

Would not be belonely

If it wasn't for your golden hair

Would not be alone

If it wasn't for your piercing stare

Would not be belonely

If it wasn't for your piercing stare

Would not be alone

I would not waltz in a widow's time

Dressed in black by Gods design

What was yours would not be mine

If it wasn't for your golden hair

Would not be alone

You courted me with princely airs

Said you'd love me only

Kiss the ribbons in my hair

Said, "Darling, fly away"

Flower of the Calvary

You swept me off my saddle

Lifted me into your life

A soldier's wife was I

You proudly marched to the horn

I waited for your swift return

I stood my ground so forlorn

'Ere to be alone

I longed for you, I longed to die

I've been so belonely

The pillow's bare by my side

And yet I shall abide

For heaven has a set for me

Companion for eternity

So kiss the ribbons in my hair

Say darling come and fly

If it wasn't for your golden hair

I would not be belonely

If it wasn't for your golden hair

Would not be alone
