TRAVELLING LADY
Where is my travelling lady who gave her heart so free
And promised till the end of time
She’d always stay with me
God knows I can’t forget her
God knows how I’ve tried
The day my lady died
The day my lady died
Oh a part of me it died
Down deep inside
I see you there my lady
No roses in your face
And all this world around you
Is so much out of place
And I’m sorry I made you cry
I’m sorry I made you cry
The day my lady died
Down deep inside
You long for freedom’s road my love
You couldn’t be trapped nor caged
Your heart was soft like gold my love
It wore but never stained
It was always warm and close to me
It never told me lies.
The day my lady died
The day my lady died
Well part of me it died
Down deep inside
Where is my travelling lady who gave her heart so free
And promised till the end of time
She’d always stay with me
God knows I can’t forget her
God knows how I’ve tried
The day my lady died
The day my lady died
Oh a part of me it died
Down deep inside
My lady went and died
My lady went and died
Then part of me it died
Down deep inside
