Oh Dear Me

Oh, dear me
I thought she was me darlin'
But she proved untrue, and she left without a warnin'
We swore we'd love forever
Together to the end
But, oh, dear me
I will never love again

Once I had an English girl
From Liverpool came she
So proper and so charming, sure, she meant the world to me
But, when she drank a gin or two
She had her roving eye
For soldier boys or sailor lads
Or anyone for by

Oh, dear me
I thought she was me darlin'
But she proved untrue, and she left without a warnin'
We swore we'd love forever
Together to the end
But, oh, dear me
I will never love again

Next I had a Scottish girl
She came through Aberdeen
She was the bonniest lassie, boys, that I had ever seen
We rolled around together
And the wedding bells did ring
But she left me at the altar
And went off on a highland fling

Oh, dear me
I thought she was me darlin'
But she proved untrue, and she left without a warnin'
We swore we'd love forever
Together to the end
But, oh, dear me
I will never love again

Then I had a yankee girl
She came from Baltimore
She taught me well, and showed me things I'd never seen before
She loved to live the high life
And we lived it night and day
But, when my money was all spent
She went upon her way

Oh, dear me
I thought she was me darlin'
But she proved untrue, and she left without a warnin'
We swore we'd love forever
Together to the end
But, oh, dear me
I will never love again

Well, now I have an Irish girl
From Belfast Town she comes
She nags me and she plagues me, and she has me 'neath her thumb
For five long years, we're married
Though it seems like 20 more
But still, in all, I'd miss her, boys
If she walked out the door

Oh, dear me
I thought she was me darlin'
But she proved untrue, and she left without a warnin'
We swore we'd love forever
Together to the end
But, oh, dear me
I will never love again

Oh, dear me
I thought she was me darlin'
But she proved untrue, and she left without a warnin'
We swore we'd love forever
Together to the end
But, oh, dear me
I will never love again
