Darling Nellie Across the Sea - The Carter Family

Oh the night was dark and stormy

When this message came to me

It was from my darling Nellie

Who is far across the sea

Oh dear Jack I know I'm dying

I've no friends no parents nigh

But remember dearest Jackie

There's a home for us on high

Oh dear mother I must leave you

I must go across the sea

I must find my darling Nellie

Who so dearly cared for me

I was wandering through the graveyard

When I found where Nellie laid

It was there my heart was broken

It was there I knelt and prayed

Now I'm left alone in sadness

On the field of flowery Spain

And the girl I love is sleeping

In the cold and silent grave

Lay me where my Nellie's sleeping

Close beside her let me lie

Where the blooming flowers are creeping

There oh lay me when I die
