They say that love's a gentle thing To me it brought only painSince the only man I ever loved Has gone on the morning trainI never will marry I'll be no man's wifeI will remain single For the rest of my lifeWell, the train pulled out The whistle blewWith a long and a lonesome hold He's gone, he's gone like the morning dewAnd left me all alone I never will marryI'll be no man's wife I will remain singleFor the rest of my lifeWell, there's many a change in the winter wind And a change in the clouds' designThere's many a change in a young girl's heart But never a change in mineI never will marry I'll be no man's wifeI will remain single For the rest of my lifeI never will marry I'll be no man's wifeI will remain single For the rest of my life
