I'm going across the sea, stay forever more Left my little darlin' standing in the door Won't you come and go Come and go with me Fly to me my pretty little Miss I'm going across the sea Wind is howling low, wind is howling high Go with me my pretty little love until the day I die Would you give a nickel would you give a dime Would you give one dollar bill to call your name as mine Donie, Donie, Donie, what makes your face so red Working out in the crops, son, I got a fever in my head Like my momma told me, it has come to past Drinkin' and a-gamblin' gonna be my ruin at last
