《O Molly Dear》歌词

[00:00:00] O Molly Dear - B.F. Shelton

[00:00:07] Oh once I lived in old Virginia

[00:00:12] To north Carolina I did go

[00:00:20] There I saw a nice young lady

[00:00:24] Oh her name I did not know

[00:00:31] Her hair was black and her eyes was sparkling

[00:00:36] On her cheeks were diamonds red

[00:00:42] And on her breast she wore a lily

[00:00:47] To mourn the tears that I have shed

[00:00:54] Oh when I'm asleep I dream about her

[00:00:58] When I'm awake I see no rest

[00:01:10] Every moment seems like an hour

[00:01:14] Oh the pains that cross my breast

[00:01:22] Oh molly dear go ask your mother

[00:01:27] If you my bride can ever be

[00:01:34] If she says no come back and tell me

[00:01:38] And never more will I trouble thee

[00:01:50] Last night as I laid on my pillow

[00:01:55] Last night as I laid on my bed

[00:02:02] Last night as I laid on my pillow

[00:02:06] I dreamed that fair young lady was dead

[00:02:13] No I won't go ask my mother

[00:02:17] She's lying on her bed of rest

[00:02:24] And in one hand she holds a dagger

[00:02:29] To kill the man that I love best

[00:02:37] Now go and leave me if you want to

[00:02:41] Then from me you will be free

[00:02:48] For in your heart you love another

[00:02:52] And in my grave I'd rather be
