Oh, come hear my story, I'll tell it to you My heart is all broken, I'm sad and I'm blue I just lost my darling, her name was La La As pretty as a picture and oh, twice as fair Hey! La La, Oh! La La, my true La La-aa Hey! La La, Oh! La La, my true La La A grave on the hillside all covered with snow A heart broken lover with head bending low With tears in his eyes, he placed a red rose On the grave of his darling up there in the snow REFRAIN Oh! God up in heaven, please tell her for me My hopes are all shattered, oh! say can't you see Just tell her I'm waiting to meet her up there I'll look at her picture and send her a prayer
