Say Darling Say

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Say little darlin', won't you marry me Live in the holler 'neath the old oak tree Say darlin' say 'Neath the old oak tree we'll make our home Nevermore this world to roam Say darlin' say [Verse 2] Say little darlin', if you were mine You wouldn't do nothin' but starch and iron Say darlin' say Starch and iron would be your trade I'd get drunk and lay in the shade Say darlin' say [Verse 3] Say little darlin', won't you marry me Live in the holler 'neath the old oak tree Say darlin' say Live in the holler 'neath the old oak tree Children bouncin' on daddy's knee Say darlin' say [Verse 4] Hush little darlin', don't say a word Papa's gonna buy you a mockin' bird Say darlin' say If that mockin' bird don't sing Papa's gonna buy you a diamond ring Say darlin' say If that diamond ring is glass Papa's gonna buy you a lookin' glass Say darlin' say If that lookin' glass gets broke Papa's gonna buy you a billy goat Say darlin' say If that billy goat won't pull Papa's gonna buy you a cart and bull Say darlin' say If that cart and bull fall down You're still the sweetest baby in town Say darlin' say
