True Love, True Love

by Connie Francis

on Connie Francis Sings American Fantasies (1990), In The Summer Of His Years (1963)

(True love, true love
Don't lie to me
Tell me where did you
Sleep last night?)

I slept in the pines
Where the sun never shines
And I shivered with the cold
Deadly cold.

(Tell me where did you
Get those pretty shoes
And the dress you wear
So fine?)

Well, I got me my shoes
From a railroad man
Got my dress from a driver
In the mine.

--- Instrumental ---

I wish that I had
Never been born
Or had died
When I was young.

Then I never would
Have kissed your sweet, sweet lips
Or had your
Ragging tongue.

(True love, true love
Don't lie to me
Tell me where did you
Sleep last night?)

I slept in the pines
Where the sun never shines
And I shivered with the cold
Deadly cold...
