The Statler Brothers Lyrics
"Nobody's Darlin' But Mine"

(Jimmie Davis)

Come sit by my side little darlin'
Come gaze in my eyes for a time
Promise me that you will never be
Nobody's darlin' but mine.

You're as sweet as the flowers of springtime
You're as pure as the dew from the rose
And I'd rather be somebody's darlin'
Than a poor boy that nobody knows.

Be nobody's darlin' but mine
Love be honest, be faithful, be kind
Promise me that you will never be
Nobody's darlin' but mine.

My mother is dead and in heaven
My daddy is gone there I know
Sister has gone to be with them
Where I'll go nobody knows.

Goodbye, goodbye little darlin'
I'm leaving this old world behind
Promise me that you will never be
Nobody's darlin' but mine.

Be nobody's darlin' but mine
Love be honest, be faithful, be kind
Promise me that you will never be
Nobody's darlin' but mine.

Promise me that you will never be
Nobody's darlin' but mine...
