Good morning, Loving Nancy
We have met in due time
I'll ask you a question
A whole pistol-crime
Come and sit yourself beside me
As long as you stay
So fare you well, Nancy
I'm goin' away
Go put up your horses
And feed them some hay
So fare you well, Nancy
I'll drive on my way
Your wagons to grease?
And your bills to pay
So, come to set down aside me
As long as you stay
My wagons will grease?
And my whips in my hand
So fare you well, Nancy
I'm leaving this land
So was I next morning
As soon as I arise
I'll be crossing deep waters
With tears in my eyes
To think I must leave her
To see her no more
I left a-grievin'
On a new river shore
Some says I am rude
Some says I am rough
Some says I am guilty
Of many bad crime
I can prove them all liars
By the power above
I'm guilty of nothing
But insolent? love
My Papa don't like me
And this well I know
He says I'm not worthy
To step up to his door
