Dark and Stormy Weather by The Carter Family Lyrics
[Chorus]
Dark and stormy weather
It still inclines to rain
The clouds hang over Centre
My love's gone away on a train
[Verse 1]
We met, loved, and parted
I thought the world of you
You left me broken-hearted
To me you proved untrue
I'm leaving old Virginia
There's nothing here for me
I know you love another
In my grave I'd rather be
[Chorus]
[Verse 2]
You told me that you loved me
I believed just what you said
But now you love another
I wish that I were dead
[Chorus]
Dark and stormy weather
It still inclines to rain
The clouds hang over Centre
My love's gone away on a train
[Verse 1]
We met, loved, and parted
I thought the world of you
You left me broken-hearted
To me you proved untrue
I'm leaving old Virginia
There's nothing here for me
I know you love another
In my grave I'd rather be
[Chorus]
[Verse 2]
You told me that you loved me
I believed just what you said
But now you love another
I wish that I were dead
[Chorus]
