I Truly Understand That You Love Another Man - Carolina Chocolate Drops

I wish to the Lord I never been born

Or died when I was young

Never would’ve seen those two brown eyes

Nor heard your flattering tongue my love

Or heard your flattering tongue

I truly understand that you love another man

And your heart shall no longer be mine

Well who will shoe your pretty little feet

And whose gonna glove your hand

Who will kiss your sweet red lips

When I’m in a foreign land, my love

When I’m in a foreign land

I truly understand that you love another man

And your heart shall no longer be mine

Well don’t ya remember last saturday night

When we stood side by side

You promised that you’d marry me

And be no other man’s bride my love

And be no other man’s bride

I truly understand that you love another man

And your heart shall no longer be mine

I never will listen what another woman says

Let her hair be black or brown

I’d rather be standing on the top of some hill

With the rain a-pouring down my love

With the rain a-pouring down

I truly understand that you love another man

And your heart shall no longer be mine

Said I will shoe your pretty little feet

And I will glove those hands

And I will kiss your sweet red lips

When you’re in a foreign land, my love

When you’re in a foreign land

I truly understand that you love another man

And your heart shall no longer be mine

I truly understand that you love another man

And your heart shall no longer be mine
