27 May 97 - 10:35 PM (#5838) Subject: Lyr Add: LITTLE DARLING PAL OF MINE (Carter Family From: Gene Graham Could this be the one? 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 |

From: hartley Why not listen to the song the way the Carter's did it at their first recording sessions in 1927-28, released a couple of years ago on Rounder Records, Anchored in Love. I grew up listening to J. Baez's version, but hearing the "original" Carter version is well worth the time and expense. |
