Found the lyrics, thanks everyone.

SHE NEVER SAID A SOLITARY WORD
From the film "Sing Me A Song Of Texas" (1945)

Foy Willing & The Riders of the Purple Sage (Film
Soundtrack) - 1945

I was ridin' 'cross the prairie
The prairie far and wide
When I saw a gal come riding
And I rode up very closely by her side

But she never said a word
Not a solitary word
She never said a solitary word
I took her many charms
Held her closely in my arms
But she never said a solitary word

I said, "Ma'am
The way you kissed me
I'll remember all my life
And I want you for my everlovin' wife"

But she never said a word
Not a solitary word
She never said a solitary word
I took her many charms
Held her closely in my arms
But she never said a solitary word

On the day that we got married
I was happy till I saw
Pearly teeth upon the dresser
And her wooden leg was holding back the door

But I never said a word
Though she chattered like a bird
I never said a solitary word
I just saddled up old paint
And I got to where she ain't
Aand I never said a solitary word
