Texty: Bill Monroe. Along About Daybreak.
When we were young and we thought we loved each other
But you didn't love me, I guess
For you've gone and you've found another
Everything to you is regret
This morning along about daybreak
You quarreled at me the whole night through
I know it's not too late for your sake, dear
But for me I will always be blue
Oh, I'm weary, my darling, I'm weary
Just to know your love's gone cold
For without you I will be so dreary
We'll need each other when we grow old
This morning along about daybreak
You quarreled at me the whole night through
I know it's not too late for your sake, dear
But for me I will always be blue
Oh sweetheart, be good to our babies
And I want you to teach them to pray
Tell them to say a little prayer for their daddy
Where he will be no one can say
This morning along about daybreak
You quarreled at me the whole night through
I know it's not too late for your sake, dear
But for me I will always be blue
But you didn't love me, I guess
For you've gone and you've found another
Everything to you is regret
This morning along about daybreak
You quarreled at me the whole night through
I know it's not too late for your sake, dear
But for me I will always be blue
Oh, I'm weary, my darling, I'm weary
Just to know your love's gone cold
For without you I will be so dreary
We'll need each other when we grow old
This morning along about daybreak
You quarreled at me the whole night through
I know it's not too late for your sake, dear
But for me I will always be blue
Oh sweetheart, be good to our babies
And I want you to teach them to pray
Tell them to say a little prayer for their daddy
Where he will be no one can say
This morning along about daybreak
You quarreled at me the whole night through
I know it's not too late for your sake, dear
But for me I will always be blue
