Patches - Dickey Lee[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 everybody calls Patches[00:00:16]
Patches my darling[00:00:23]
Of Old Shanty town[00:00:27]
We plan to marry[00:00:33]
When June brought the summer[00:00:36]
I couldn't wait to make Patches my bride[00:00:39]
Now I don't see how[00:00:46]
That ever can happen[00:00:49]
My folks say No [00:00:53]
And my heart breaks inside[00:00:56]
Patches oh what can I do[00:01:00]
I swear I'll always love you[00:01:07]
But a girl from that place[00:01:13]
Would just bring me disgrace[00:01:17]
So my folks won't let me love you[00:01:21]
Each night I cry[00:01:28]
As I think of that shanty[00:01:31]
And pretty Patches there watching the door[00:01:35]
She dosn't know[00:01:42]
That I can't come to see her[00:01:45]
Patches must think[00:01:49]
That I love her no more[00:01:52]
I hear a neighbor telling my father[00:01:58]
He says a girl name of[00:02:05]
Patches was found[00:02:08]
Floating face down in[00:02:12]
That dirty old river[00:02:15]
That flows by the coal yards[00:02:19]
In Old Shanty Town[00:02:22]
Patches oh what can I do[00:02:26]
I swear I'll always love you[00:02:33]
It may not be right[00:02:39]
But I'll join you tonight[00:02:43]
Patches I'm coming to you[00:02:47]
