[00:00.43]Patches - Dickie Lee
[00:01.04]Written by：Kolber/Mann
[00:02.17]Down by the river that flows by the coal yards
[00:09.26]Stands wooden houses with shutters torn down
[00:16.46]There lives a girl everybody calls patches
[00:23.39]Patches my darling of old shanty town
[00:32.42]We plan to marry when june brought the summer
[00:39.27]I couldn't wait to make patches my bride
[00:46.27]Now I don't see how that ever can happen
[00:53.09]My folks say no and my heart breaks inside
[01:00.11]Patches oh what can I do
[01:07.00]I swear I'll always love you
[01:13.33]But a girl from that place would just bring me
[01:18.21]Disgrace
[01:20.16]So my folks won't let me love you
[01:27.86]Each night I cry as I think of that shanty
[01:34.54]And pretty patches there watching the door
[01:41.35]She dosn't know that I can't come to see her
[01:48.51]Patches must think that I love her no more
[01:57.48]I hear a neighbor tellin' my father
[02:04.29]He said a girl name of patches was found
[02:11.14]Floating face down in that dirty old river
[02:18.00]That flows by the coal yards in old shanty town
[02:25.20]Patches oh what can I do
[02:32.20]I swear I'll always love you
[02:38.57]It may not be right but I'll join you tonight
[02:46.33]Patches I'm coming to you
