My daddy was a handsome gambler he had a chain five miles long
On every link a heart gets dangled of another maid he loved and
wronged
He told to you some loving story
He'd make you think he'd leave them true
But love grows cold as love grows older and fades away like morning
dew
I'd rather be in some dark hollow where the sun refused to shine
Than to live here in Missouri with your memory always on my mind
Come all ye fair and tender ladies take warning how your court your
man
They're like a star on a summer morning
First they appear then they're gone again
Come all ye fair and tender ladies take warning how your court your
man
They're like a star on a summer morning
First they appear then they're gone again
From the "So Rebellious A Lover" LP Rhino Records 1987
