Nobody's Darlin' But Mine

Come, sit by my side little darlin'

Come gaze in my eyes for a time

Promise me that you will never be

Nobody's darlin' but mine

You're as sweet as the flowers of springtime

You're as pure as the dew from the rose

And I'd rather be somebody's darlin'

Than a poor boy that nobody knows

Be nobody's darlin' but mine

Love be honest, be faithful, be kind

Promise me that you will never be

Nobody's darlin' but mine

My mother is dead and in heaven

My daddy is gone there I know

Sister has gone to be with them

Where I'll go nobody knows

Goodbye, goodbye little darlin'

I'm leaving this old world behind

Promise me that you will never be

Nobody's darlin' but mine

Be nobody's darlin' but mine

Love be honest, be faithful, be kind

Promise me that you will never be

Nobody's darlin' but mine

Promise me that you will never be

Nobody's darlin' but mine
