The Carter Family - Gold Watch and Chain lyrics

[Verse 1] Darling, how can I stay here without you I have nothing to cheer my poor heart This old world would seem sad, love, without you Tell me now that we're never to part [Chorus] Oh, I'll pawn you my gold watch and chain, love And I'll pawn you my gold diamond ring I will pawn you this heart in my bosom Only say that you love me again [Verse 2] Take back all the gifts you have given But a ring and a lock of your hair And a card with your picture upon it It's a face that is false, but it's fair [Chorus] [Verse 3] Tell me why that you do not love me Tell me why that your smile is not bright Tell me why you have grown so cold-hearted Is there no kiss for me, love, tonight [Chorus]
