Merle Haggard - Nobody's Darlin' But Mine lyrics

rate me

(Jimmie Davis)

Come lay by my side little darlin'

Come lay your cool hand on my brow

Promise me that you will always be

Nobody's darlin' but mine.

You're as sweet as the flowers of springtime

You're as pure as the dew from the rose

And I'd rather be somebody's darlin'

Than a poor boy that nobody knows.

Be nobody's darlin' but mine love

Be honest be faithful be kind

And promise me that you will always be

Nobody's darlin' but mine.

--- Instrumental ---

Goodbye, goodbye little darlin'

I'm leaving this cold world behind

So promise me that you will never be

Nobody's darlin' but mine...
