I Hang My Head and Cry Lyrics

When I come home in the evening
I get my love somehow
No one to call her darling
No one to say good night

When I have plenty of money
The girls all gathered around me
But now I have no money
They've all gone back on me

I went to see my darling
She was so dear and clear
And so I said someday Ill be leaving
And I'll see her in my dreams

I asked my darling to marry
She looked at me and smiled
And said to me: “My sweetheart
Let's wait a little while”

If I had listened to mother
I wouldn't be here today
For I was young and foolish
And squandered my money away
