Bring Back My Blue Eyed Boy by The Carter Family Lyrics

[Verse 1]
This true the rain that has no end
It's hard to find a faithful friend
And when you find one just and true
He's dropped the old one for the new

[Chorus]
Bring back my blue eyed boy to me
Bring back my blue eyed boy to me
Bring back my blue eyed boy to me
That I may ever happy be

[Verse 2]
Must I go bound and have no free
Must I love a boy that don't love me
Or must I act the childish part
And love that boy that broke my heart

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Last night my lover promised me
To take me across the deep blue sea
And now he's gone and left me alone
An orphan girl without a home
[Chorus]

[Verse 4]
O dig my grave both wide and deep
Place marble at my head and feet
And on my breast a snow white dove
To show to the world I died for love

[Chorus]
