once i knowed old lady
round tennessee did dwell
she had a lovin’ husband
but she loved other mens as well

love my darlin’ o
love my darlin’ o

i’m goin’ down to the doctor’s shop
just as quick as i can go
see if i can’t find sumpen ’round that place
that’ll run my husband blind

love my darlin’ o
love my darlin’ o

she only found two marrowbone
an’ she told them to suck them all
an says, now i’m blind my dear young wife
an’ i jes’ can’t see at all

love my darlin’ o
love my darlin’ o

love my darlin’ o
love my darlin’ o

well, i would go and drown myself
if i only knew the way
says, now my dear come and go with me
mother’s fraid you’ll run astray

love my darlin’ o
love my darlin’ o

love my darlin’ o
love my darlin’ o

goes way down by the riverside
for to see her old man drown
my dear kind wife, i cannot drown
unless you shove me in

she gits way back, takes a little runnin’ start
gonna shove her old man in
old man jumps just a little to one side
and a-headlong she plunged in

love my darlin’ o
love my darlin’ o

love my darlin’ o
love my darlin’ o

she whooped and she hollered
just as loud as any woman could squall
old man knows his sweet wife’s dyin’
an’ cannot see at all

love my darlin’ o
love my darlin’ o

love my darlin’ o
love my darlin’ o

ol’ man bein’ so kind-hearted
knowin’ too his sweet wife could not swim
reahed right down and git a long pole
and he shoves her further in

love my darlin’ o
love my darlin’ o

love my darlin’ o
love my darlin’ o

come all you hasty young women
an’ take warnin’ after me
don’t never try to drown a po’ old man
that’s blind so he cannot see

love my darlin’ o
love my darlin’ o

love my darlin’ o
love my darlin’ o
