Letra da Música: The Sailor's Plea - Bill Monroe & His Bluegrass Boys

Dear sweetheart as I write to you my heart is filled with pain
For if those things I hear are true, I'll never see you again
They tell me darling that tonight you'll wed another man
But if you do I'll tell you true my boat will never land

You prosmised that you would wait for me that nothing could come between
That in my home some day you'd be my wife and lovely queen
I built you that cozy home and made a garden there
And planted too with my own hands sweet flowers rich and rare

My hopes are placed in you, you've been my guiding star
Please write and tell me that you're true to the sailor who waits a-far
Just tell me that you love me yet still longs to be my wife
I'll return and then we'll wed and live a happy life
