《I Didn’t Go》歌词

[00:00:00] Jack and May were newly wed a loving pair were they

[00:00:23] Until the other day when Jack said to his May：

[00:00:35] Tonight I have to talk some bus'ness with some bus'nessmen

[00:01:00] But rest assured that I'll return at ten

[00:01:01] That night he left the flat and simple wifey sat

[00:01:02] Up with the cat for Jack who never came

[00:01:03] The day was dawning when he rambled home again

[00:01:06] I heard the clock strike

[00:01:08] One A M

[00:01:09] One A M

[00:01:09] One A M

[00:01:10] It told me of my promise when I left you in the hall

[00:01:12] Before I knew 'twas

[00:01:13] Two A M

[00:01:14] Three A M

[00:01:14] Four A M

[00:01:15] But you know I promised to be home at ten

[00:01:19] So I didn't go home at all

[00:01:20] Jack remarked It's eas'ly seen that I'm not all to blame

[00:01:22] My explanation's tame it's true tho' just the same

[00:01:24] Much rather than disturb you from your slumber so divine

[00:01:30] I lingered just to pass away the time

[00:01:31] And then again you see I didn't take the key

[00:01:34] Which proves that my intentions were the best

[00:01:35] I even said a pray'r that you might not despair

[00:01:38] Besides I knew how much you needed rest：

[00:01:40] Jack had been forgiven and the future seemed so bright

[00:01:44] Until the other night his May was not in sight

[00:01:49] She went to see a sick friend but had promised to come back

[00:01:54] At sixty minutes after nine to Jack

[00:02:40] At sixty minutes past next morn she came at last

[00:02:42] Her op'ning speech was I've been with my friend

[00:02:43] Because they said she'd die I wanted to be nigh

[00:02:45] And so I waited for the coming end
