Merle Haggard - Nobody's Darlin' But Mine lyrics

[Intro] Come lay by my side little darling Come lay your cool hand on my brow Promise me that you will always be Nobody's darling but mine [Verse] 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 darling Than a poor boy that nobody knows Be nobody's darling but mine love Be honest be faithful be kind And promise me that you will always be Nobody's darling but mine [Outro] Goodbye, goodbye little darling I'm leaving this cold world behind So promise me that you will never be Nobody's darling but mine
