lyrics

DARLING COME HOME

Well I met my baby down by the railroad
She held me close, she carried my load
Her eyes were bright, like the morning sunlight
And I loved her true all through the night

Well my baby left me down by the river
Now I’m drinking warm whiskeys, one after the other
I’m soaking my head, just trying to forget her
Cause nothing's been right since she’s been gone

Now I fear I’m drowning, oh my sister oh my brother
Won’t you throw me a line tonight
Cause I know I’ll never, oh I’ll never love another
Oh my darling won’t you come home tonight

Well I met my baby down by the railroad
She held me close, she carried my load
Her eyes were bright, like the morning sunlight
And I loved her true all through the night

Now I fear I’m drowning, oh my sister oh my brother
Won’t you throw me a line tonight
Cause I know I’ll never, oh I’ll never love another
Oh my darling won’t you come home

Oh my darling won’t you come home
Oh my darling won’t you come home
Tonight
