John Jacob Niles - Go 'Way From My Window
John Jacob Niles singing Go 'Way From My Window Go away from my window Go away from my door Go away way from my bedside And bother me no more And bother me no more I'll go tell all of my brothers I'll go tell my shipmates too The reason that my heart is broke Is on account of you Is on account of you I'll give you back your letter I'll give you back you ring And I won't forget my own true love As long as song birds sing As long as song birds sing Go away from my window Go away from my door Go away way from my bedside And bother me no more And bother me no more I'll tell all of my brothers I'll tell my shipmates too The reason that my heart is broke Is on account of you Is on account of you
