Once I had a sweetheart and now I have none
Once I had a sweetheart and now I have none.
He's gone and leave me, he's gone and leave me
He's gone and leave me to sorrow and mourn.
Last night in deep slumber I dreamed I did see
Last night in deep slumber I dreamed I did see
My own true love came smiling to me
My own true love came smiling to me.
And when I awakened I found it not so
And when I awakened I found it not so.
My heart like some fountain with tears overflow
My heart like some fountain with tears overflow.
Once I had a sweetheart and now I have none
Once I had a sweetheart and now I have none.
He's gone and leave me, he's gone and leave me
He's gone and leave me to sorrow and mourn.

Babe, I'm gonna leave you,
Tell you when I'm gonna leave you,
Leave you when ol' summer-time, summer comes a-rolling,
Leave you when ol' summer comes along.
Babe, that highway's a-callin',
That old highway's a-callin',
Callin' me to travel on, travel on out westward,
Callin' me to travel on alone.
Babe, I'd like to stay here,
You know I'd really like to stay here,
My feet start goin' down, goin' down that highway,
My feet start goin' down, goin' down alone.
Babe, I've got to ramble,
You know I've got to ramble,
My feet start goin' down, and I got to follow,
They just start goin' down, and I got to go.
