Lyrics

Hang Down Your Head

Hush a wild violet

Hush a band of gold

Hush you're in a story

I heard somebody told

Tear the promise from my heart

Tear my heart today

You have found another

Oh, baby, I must go away

So hang down your head for sorrow

Hang down your head for me

Hang down your head tomorrow

Hang down your head, Marie

Hush my love the rain now

Hush my love so true

Hush my love a train now

Well it takes me away from you

So hang down your head for sorrow

Hang down your head for me

Hang down your head

Hang down your head

Hang down your head Marie

So hang down your head for sorrow

Hang down your head for me

Hang down your head

Hang down your head

Hang down your head, Marie
