Patches - Ray Dylan

Down by the river that flows

By the coal yards stand wooden houses

With shutters torn down There lives a

Girl everybody calls Patches Patches

My darling of old Shantytown

We planned to marry when June brought

The summer I couldn't wait to make Patches

My bride now I don't see how that ever can happen

My folks say no and my heart breaks inside

Patches oh what can I do I swear

I'll always love you but a girl from that

Place would just bring me disgrace

So my folks won't let me love you

Each night I cry as I think of that

Shanty and pretty patches there watching the door

She doesn't know that I can't come to

See her Patches must think that

I love her no more

I hear a neighbor telling my father

He says a girl name of Patches was

Found floating face down in that dirty

Old river that flows by the coal

Yards in old Shantytown

Patches oh what can I do I swear

I'll always love you It may not be right

But I'll join you tonight Patches

I'm coming to you
