ALBERTA LET YO' HAIR HANG LOW
As recorded by Conrad Thibault on Decca (73318), 1946.

Alberta, let your hair hang low.
Alberta, let your hair hang low.
I'll give you more gold than your apron can hold
If you'll just let your hair hang low.

Alberta, what's on your mind?
Alberta, what's on your mind?
You keep me worried; you keep me bothered all the time.
Alberta, what's on your mind?

Alberta, don't you treat me unkind.
Alberta, don't you treat me unkind,
For my heart is sad 'cause I want you so bad.
Alberta, don't you treat me unkind.
