1.Down In The Valley
(traditional)
Down in the valley, the valley so low
The valley so low
Late in the evening, hear that train blow
Hear that train blow, love
Hear that train blow
Late in the evening, hear that train blow
The train don't stay, love
It goes right through
And now it's gone, love
And so are you
Before you go, love
For old time sake
Put your arms 'round me
Feel my heart break
Down in the valley, valley so low
Late in the evening, hear that train blow
The train is gone, love
And out of sight
Good night my darling
Darling good night
Good night
2.Yes, My Darling Daughter
(Jack Lawrence)
Mother, may I go out dancing?
Yes, my darling daughter
Mother, may I try romancing?
Yes, my darling daughter
What if there's a moon, mama darling, and it's shining on the
water
Mother, must I keep on dancing?
Yes, my darling daughter
What if he'll propose, mama darling, when the night is growing
shorter?
Mother, what should be my answer?
Yes, my darling daughter
Mother, will it be exciting?
Mother, do I look inviting?
What if he holds me tight & my knees just turn to water
Mama, what should I do?
What if there's a moon, my mama darling, and it's shining on the
water
Mother, must I keep on dancing?
Yes, my darling daughter
What if he'll propose, my mama darling, when the night is
growing shorter?
Mother, what'cha think should be my answer?
Yes, my darling daughter
Oh mama darling, what if he holds my hand & then says, 'Come
just a little closer?'
Mother dear, what should be my answer?
Oh yes, my darling daughter
