And I had got a job of herdin' sheep.
I thought that she had went along to keep
Me comp'ny, and we'd set around for hours
Just lovin', and I'd go and gather flowers
And pile them at her feet, all in a heap.

With only her besides the sheep and birds,
And us not sayin' anything but words
About the way we loved. I wouldn't care
To ever wake again if I could still
Dream we was there forever on the hill.

Sometimes I almost wisht that I was dead For settin' there and makin' such a break. |

| Last night I heard Jones astin' you to go To see the opery next Thursday night, And you said yes—and he'll be settin' right Beside you there all through the whole blamed show, And you'll be touchin' him with your elbow, And mebby he'll say things that tickle you And buy a box of chock'luts for you, too, And I'll not be around nor never know. I wish I'd be the hero on the stage, And you was the fair maiden that got stoled, And he would be the villain that would hold You frettin' like a song-bird in its cage— And then |
