To the queen of hearts is the ace of sorrow
He's here today, and he's gone tomorrow
Young men are plenty but sweethearts few
If my love should leave me what should I do?
I love my mother, I love my father
I love my sister, I love my brother
I love my friends and my relatives too
I'll forsake them all and go with you
Had I the store in yonder mountain
With gold and silver there for counting
I could not count for want of thee
Mine eyes so full I could not see
To the queen of hearts is the ace of sorrow
He's here today, and he's gone tomorrow
Young men are plenty but sweethearts few
If my love should leave me what should I do?
