[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
At sixteen I fell for Billy
He was a Ftall and Cbonny youth
A Gfriend to every pretty girl
But a Fstranger to the Dtruth
[Verse 2]
GHe swore he loved me dearly
FI swore I’d not upCset him
But Ghe said he couldn’t marry me
His Fwife would never let Dhim
[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh, Gnever the bride
FNever the bride
EmShow me a man with Conly one Dside
GI’m bound to live aF single life
EmNever, oh, never the Dbride
[Verse 3]
I Gtook up with Jack at seventeen
FNo finer boy I Cknew
He Gsaid I was the air he breathed
And I beFlieved his words were Dtrue
[Verse 4]
GHe worked the docks at Liverpool
Loading Fsteamers bound for CSpain
But Ghis heart was young and restless
And Fhe soon sailed aDway
[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh, Gnever the bride
FNever the bride
EmShow me a man with Conly one Dside
GI’m bound to live aF single life
EmNever, oh, never the Dbride
[Instrumental]

[Verse 5]
GI turned eighteen that summer
And I Fwore John Dawson’s Cring
GHe sailed for Valparaiso
And FI waited ‘til the Dspring
[Verse 6]
I Gturned away all others
And I Fslept alone each Cnight
When GI cried, ‘twas not for Johnny
‘Twas Ffor my sorry Dlife
[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh, Gnever the bride
FNever the bride
EmShow me a man with Conly one Dside
GI’m bound to live aF single life
EmNever, oh, never the Dbride
