I was born in East Virginia North Carolina I did go There I met the fairest maiden Her name and age I did not know I don't want the greenback dollar I don't want the big silver chain All I want is your love darling Won't you please come back again Last night I seen you walking With another by your side And I thought I heard you tell him That soon you'd be his bride I don't want the greenback dollar I don't want the big gold chain All I want is your love darling Won't you please come back again Well her hair was dark in color And her cheeks were rosy red On her breast she wore a white lily Where I longed to lay my head I don't want the greenback dollar I don't want the big gold chain All I want is your love darling Won't you please come back again I rather be in some dark hollow (note 2) Where the sun refused to shine Than to see you with another When you promised to be mine
