They say that love's a gentle thing
To me brought only pain
Since the only man I ever loved
Is gone on the morning train

I never will marry
I'll be no man's wife
I will remain single
For the rest of my life

Well the train pulled out
The whistle blew
With a long and lonesome moan
He's gone, he's gone
Like the morning dew
And left me all alone

I never will marry
I'll be no man's wife
I will remain single
For the rest of my life

Well there's many a change in the winter wind
And a change in the clouds design
There's many a change in the youg girl's heart
But never a change in mine

I never will marry
I'll be no man's wife
I will remain single
For the rest of my life

I never will marry
I'll be no man's wife
I will remain single
For the rest of my life

(Trad. / arr. Joan Sakel)
