They say barroom girls are pretty are they prettier than me
It's so lonely on my side of the sea

I'm writing my third letter you've never written me
Have you forgot the love we knew
You promised when we've parted that you'd remember me
It's so lonely on my side of the sea
I'm still the girl you left behind faithful ever true
I wonder if a being blind to think the same of you
They say barroom girls are pretty are they prettier than me
It's so lonely on my side of the sea
[ steel ]
I'm still the girl you left behind
