Little Darling Pal Of Mine

(album: Southbound - 1966)

My little darling, oh, how I love you
How I love you none can tell
In your heart you love another
Little darling pal of mine

Many a day with you I've rambled
Countless hours with you I've spent
Thought I had your heart forever
But I find it only lent

My little darling, oh, how I love you
How I love you none can tell
In your heart you love another
Little darling pal of mine

Many a night while you lay sleeping
Dreaming of your rambler's eyes
I'm just a poor boy brokenhearted
Listening to the wind outside

My little darling, oh, how I love you
How I love you none can tell
In your heart you love another
Little darling pal of mine

There's only three things that I wish for
That's my casket, shroud, and grave
And when I'm dead, don't pray for me
Just kiss those lips that you betrayed

My little darling, oh, how I love you
How I love you none can tell
In your heart you love another
Little darling pal of mine
