lirik lagu spencer moore – the girl i left behind
i’ve always been a rambler
my fortunes been quite large
i’ve always loved pretty women
drank liquor, and played cards
my parents treat me kindly
cause they have no boy but me
my mind is set on rambling
at home i could not be
there was a wealthy farmer
who lived in the country brush
he had a handsome old daughter
on who i cast an eye
she was so tall and handsome
so pretty and so fine
the only girl in this wide world
in who i could confine
i asked her what’s the difference
if i crossed over the plains
she says it makes no difference
if you return again
she says i’ll prove true to you
until you prove unkind
i shook hands
and i parted with the girl i left behind
i left old north carolina
to merlin i did go
i’m going to tennessee
i fear this life oh lord
my work and money so plentiful
the girls all treat me kind
but the only one that breaks my heart
is the girl i left behind
i’m rambling out one evening
down on the public square
when the mail boy just arrived
the post boy met me there
he hand me a letter
that i didn’t understand
the girl i’d left carolina
she’s married another man
i read on a few lines farther
and found out it was true
my heart was pain in trouble
i did not know what to do
my heart was in pain and trouble
well trouble was on my mind
i’ll always drink and gamble
for the woman i left behind
