i had a little sorrow - june christy lyrics
Loading...
i had a little sorrow
born of a little sin
i found a room
all damp with gloom
and i locked myself within
and little sorrow, weep, said i
and little sin, pray god to die
while i upon the floor will lie
and think how bad i’ve been
alas for pious planning
it mattered not a whit
for all the gloom
within that room
the lamp might have been lit
my little sorrow wouldn’t weep
my little sin would go to sleep
to save my soul
i couldn’t keep
my graceless mind on it’s
so up i got in anger
and i took a book i had
and then i put a ribbon in my hair
to please a passing lad
but one thing there’s no getting by
i’ve been a wicked girl, said i
but if i can’t be sorry, why
i might as well be glad
