The Carter Family - The Storms Are On The Ocean lyrics

I'm going away to leave you, love I'm going away for a while But I'll return to you some time If I go 10,000 miles The storms are on the ocean The heavens may cease to be This world may lose its motion, love If I prove false to thee Oh, who will dress your pretty little feet Oh, who will glove your hand Who will kiss your rosy red cheeks When I'm in the far off land The storms are on the ocean The heavens may cease to be This world may lose its motion, love If I prove false to thee Oh, papa will dress my pretty little feet And mama will glove my hand You can kiss my rosy red cheeks When you return again The storms are on the ocean The heavens may cease to be This world may lose its motion, love If I prove false to thee Oh, have you seen those mournful doves Flying from pine to pine A-mourning for their own true loves Just like I mourn for mine The storms are on the ocean The heavens may cease to be This world may lose its motion, love If I prove false to thee I'll never go back on the ocean, love I'll never go back on the sea I'll never go back on the blue-eyed girl Till she goes back on me The storms are on the ocean The heavens may cease to be This world may lose its motion, love If I prove false to thee
