Gold Watch And Chain - Carlene Carter

Darling, how can I stay here without you

I have nothing to cheer my poor heart

This old world would seem sad, love, without you

Tell me now that we’re never to part

Oh, I’ll pawn you my gold watch and chain, love

And I’ll pawn you my gold diamond ring

I will pawn you this heart in my bosom

Only say that you love me again

Take back all the gifts you have given

But a ring and a lock of your hair

And a card with your picture upon it

It’s a face that is false, but it’s fair

Oh, I’ll pawn you my gold watch and chain, love

And I’ll pawn you my gold diamond ring

I will pawn you this heart in my bosom

Only say that you love me again

Tell me why that you do not love me

Tell me why that your smile is not bright

Tell me why you have grown so coldhearted

Is there no kiss for me, love, tonight

Oh, I’ll pawn you my gold watch and chain, love

And I’ll pawn you my gold diamond ring

I will pawn you this heart in my bosom

Only say that you love me again

Oh, I’ll pawn you my gold watch and chain, love

And I’ll pawn you my gold diamond ring

I will pawn you this heart in my bosom

Only say that you love me again
