VERSE 1
GThey say it is sinful to Emflirt
They Dsay that my heart's made of Gstone
They Gtell me to Dspeak to 'im Ckind
DOr else leave the poor boy Galone
They say he is only a boy
Much older than he is I
Why don't they just leave us alone
Oh how happy together we'll be
CHORUS
Oh Willie my darling come back
I will always be faithful and true
Oh Willie my darling come back
For I'm sure that I'll only love you
VERSE 2
I remember the night Willie said,
That he loved me much better than life
He called me his darl'n, his bride
An' asked me to be his new wife
O Willie, I said with a smile,
I'm afraid that I'll have to say no,
After holding my hand for a while,
He just said goodbye love, I must go
CHORUS
Oh Willie my darling come back
I will always be faithful and true
Oh Willie my darling come back
For I'm sure that I'll only love you
VERSE 3
O Lily, O Lily, he cried
Your heart really is made of stone
He took the white rose from
An' left me there standing alone
Next morn'in they found Willie dead
Over down, by the side of the mill
In the cold crystal water so clear
That had flown from the top of the hill
VERSE 4
His pale blue eyes ever had closed
An' th dimple of his cheeks, so fair
They found in his soft loving hand
The white rose he took from my hair
CHORUS
Oh Willie my darling come back
I will always be faithful and true
Oh Willie my darling come back
For I'm sure that I'll only love you
