Hong Kong, Mississippi

ELLAS MCDANIEL

Dearest darling
Dearest darling
Dearest darling
Don't you know, the Lord above, created you, just for me to love
Picked you out, from all the rest, because he knew I loved you best
Dearest darling
Dearest darling
Dearest darling, take my hand, take my hand
I once had a heart, so trill and true
But now it's gone, from me to you
Take care of it, like I have done
For you have two hearts, and I have none
Dearest darling
Dearest darling
Dearest darling
If I get to heaven, before you do
I'll try to make a hole, and pull you thru
Dearest, dearest. dearest.
If I go to heaven, and you not there,
I'm gonna write your name, on the heavenly stair
If you aren't there, by turn of day,
Then I know baby, you know the way
Dearest, dearest, dearest
O sweet baby, o sweet baby...
