[1] Darlin' I am all alone in our [4] little mountain [1] home
It's lonely cold and loveless now [5] inside
For your [1] childish vows of love lasted [4] only one short [1] year
Then you went away to [2] be an-[5]-other's [1] bride

[1] You will [4] never know the [1] pain
That I [5] felt the day you [1] left
[4] Should you ever wed [1] again
[5] Let me wish you love and [1] wealth

Now that same old whippoorwill breaks the silence on the hill
As I stand and gaze upon that faded wall
Where your picture used to hang in a little golden frame
And the image of your smile I still recall
