Lyrics

I Wish My Baby Was Born

[Verse 1]

I wish, I wish my baby was born

Sitting on his papa's knee

And you, poor girl, were dead and gone

Green grass growing over thee

[Verse 2]

Not no saint, nor I never shall be

'Til the sweet apple grows from the sour apple tree

I still hope the day will come

When you and I will walk as one
