lyrics

Oh my sweet darlin'
Where'd you run to
And where'd you put your dress
You know the one dear
I had made for you
You're the one that I love the best

I met your mama, I met your pa
I met your maker down the hall
They all went through you and let me in
They won't make that mistake again

Oh my sweet darlin'
Where'd you run to
And where'd you put your dress
You know the one dear
I had made for you
You're the one that I love the best

You broke the lock on your bedroom door
Where you got out of the time before
While I was sleeping you meant to leave
But I won't let you live without me

I didn't mean love, to hurt you there
Or tear your new dress and pull your hair
But you wouldn't listen and you ran in sin
Now you won't leave me ever again
No you won't leave me, never again

Oh my sweet darlin'
Where'd you run to
And where'd you put your dress
You know the one dear
I had made for you
You're the one that I love the best
You're the one that I love the best
You're the one that I love the best
