I Truly Understand, You Love Another Man

I Truly Understand, You Love Another Man - Shortbuckle Roark/The Family

I wish to the Lord I never been born

Nor died when I was young

I never would've seen them two brown eyes

Nor heard that flattering tongue my love

Or heard that flattering tongue

I truly understand that you love another man

And your heart shall no longer be mine

Who will shoe your little feet

Who will glove your hand

Who will kiss your red rosy cheeks

When I'm in the foreign land my love

When I'm in the foreign land

I truly understand that you love another man

And your heart shall no longer be mine

Remember what you told me dear

As we stood side by side

You promised that you'd marry me

And be no other man's bride my love

And be no other man's bride

I truly understand that you love another man

And your heart shall no longer be mine

I never will listen what another woman says

Let her hair be black or brown

For I'd rather be on the top of some hill

And the rain a pouring down down

The rain a pouring down

I truly understand that you love another man

And your heart shall no longer be mine

My father will shoe my little feet

My mother will glove my hand

And you will kiss my red rosy cheeks

When I'm in the foreign land love

When I'm in the foreign land

I truly understand that you love another man

And your heart shall no longer be mine

I truly understand that you love another man

And your heart shall no longer be mine
