Beautiful Isle O'er The Sea Lyrics

Anita Carter Beautiful Isle O'er The Sea

Beautiful isle o'er the sea o'er the sea
Beautiful isle o'er the sea o'er the sea
There's someone waiting for me

I cannot be your sweetheart I'll tell you the reason why
My mama always told me to pass a gambler by

Beautiful isle o'er the sea o'er the sea...
[ ac.guitar ]
Now all young men take warning if you want my heart my hand
You'd better quit your gambling and be a thinkful man

Beautiful isle o'er the sea o'er the sea...

Go prove yourself be faithful go prove yourself be true
And sometime in the future perhaps I'll marry you
