Patches - Dickey Lee[00:00:00]
Written by:Kolber/Mann[00:00:00]
Down by the river[00:00:02]
That flows by the coal yards [00:00:05]
Stands wooden houses[00:00:09]
With shutters torn down[00:00:12]
There lives a girl[00:00:16]
Everybody calls Patches[00:00:19]
Patches my darling[00:00:23]
Of Old Shanty town[00:00:26]
We plan to marry[00:00:32]
When June brought the summer[00:00:35]
I couldn't wait to[00:00:39]
Make Patches my bride[00:00:41]
Now I don't see how[00:00:46]
That ever can happen[00:00:48]
My folks say No [00:00:52]
And my heart breaks inside[00:00:55]
Patches oh what can I do[00:00:59]
I swear I'll always love you[00:01:06]
But a girl from that place[00:01:12]
Would just bring me disgrace[00:01:16]
So my folks won't let me love you[00:01:19]
Each night I cry[00:01:27]
As I think of that shanty[00:01:30]
And pretty Patches[00:01:34]
There watching the door[00:01:37]
She dosn't know[00:01:41]
That I can't come to see her[00:01:43]
Patches must think[00:01:48]
That I love her no more[00:01:50]
I hear a neighbor telling my father[00:01:57]
He says a girl name[00:02:03]
Of Patches was found[00:02:06]
Floating face down in[00:02:10]
That dirty old river[00:02:13]
That flows by the coal yards[00:02:17]
In Old Shanty Town[00:02:21]
Patches oh what can I do[00:02:24]
I swear I'll always love you[00:02:31]
It may not be right[00:02:38]
But I'll join you tonight[00:02:41]
Patches I'm coming to you[00:02:45]
