Billy Bratcher My Melancholy Baby
Come, sweetheart mine
Don’t sit and pine
Tell me of the cares that make you feel so good
What have I done?
Answer me hun
Have I ever said an unkind word to you?
My love is true
And just for you
I’d do almost anything at any time
Dear, when you sigh
Or when you cry
Something seems to grip this very heart of mine
Onto me, my melancholy baby
Cuddle up and don’t be blue
All your fears are foolish fantasies, baby
As you know dear
That I’m in love with you
Every cloud must have a silver lining
Wait until the sun shines through
Smile, my honey dear
While I kiss away each tear
Or else I shall be melancholy too
Smile, my honey dear
While I kiss away each tear
Or else I shall be melancholy too
