[00:00.61]The Sailor's Pleas - Jimmie Rodgers
[00:09.82]Dear sweetheart as I write to you
[00:13.82]My heart is filled with pain
[00:18.18]For if these things I hear are true
[00:22.57]I'll never see you again
[00:26.85]They tell me darlin' that tonight
[00:31.46]You'll wed another man
[00:35.5]But if you do I'll tell you true
[00:39.95]My boat will never land
[01:09.66]You promised that you would wait for me
[01:13.95]That nothin' could come between
[01:18.21]That in my arms someday you'd be
[01:22.56]My wife and lovely queen
[01:26.75]I builded you that cozy home
[01:31.07]And made a garden there
[01:35.33]And planted too with my own hands
[01:39.72]Sweet flowers rich and rare
[02:09.22]My future hopes are placed in you
[02:13.76]You've been my guidin' star
[02:17.69]Please write and tell me that you're true
[02:21.99]To the sailor who waits afar
[02:26.20999]Just tell me that you love me yet
[02:30.42]Still long to be my wife
[02:34.86]I'll return and then we'll wed
[02:39.05]And live a happy life
