LITTLE DARLING, PAL OF MINE
As recorded by The Carter Family

CHORUS: 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.

1. Many a night, while you lay sleeping, dreaming of your amber skies,
Was a poor boy broken-hearted, list'ning to the wind that sighs. CHORUS

2. Many a day, with you I've rambled; happiest hours with you I've spent,
For I had your heart forever, but I find it's only lent. CHORUS

3. There is just three things I wish for: that's my casket, shroud, and grave.
When I'm dead, don't weep for me; just kiss those lips that you betrayed. CHORUS
