well i ain't gonna marry
neither settle down
i'm gonna sit right here
'til i tear this barrel house down
ain't no use a weepin' and there ain't no need to cry
because you got a home
just as long as i got mine
well i loves you baby
and i'll tell the world i do
i don't love nobody
in this whole round world but you
did you get that letter
mailed in your backyard
well it's sad what they said
but your best old friend had to part
neither settle down
i'm gonna sit right here
'til i tear this barrel house down
ain't no use a weepin' and there ain't no need to cry
because you got a home
just as long as i got mine
well i loves you baby
and i'll tell the world i do
i don't love nobody
in this whole round world but you
did you get that letter
mailed in your backyard
well it's sad what they said
but your best old friend had to part
