I had a lot to do with the exapnsion of Lyrics World to where it is
today and you'll find damned few C&W tunes there. Oh, I sent some in on
crossover hits but they, for the most part, are spending a whole lot of
time figuring where to put them. Webmaster Paulo now has a new guru to
consult and said guru is a friggin' COLLECTOR who worries about such
shit as a #1 country songs being shown as #1 on a page which tries to
follow the Billboard POP chart. I resigned my positions at Lyrics World
over this flap.

this site is not as extensive as Lyrics World, and probably not as anal
either, but it has some good ones.. it's from Roughstock

NOBODY'S DARLING BUT MINE
Words and music by Jimmie Davis

[G] Come sit by my side, little [C] darlin'
Come [D] lay your cool hand on my [G] brow
Promise me that you will nev-[C] er
Be [D] nobody's darlin' but [G] mine.

Nobody's darlin' but mine, love
Be honest, be faithful, be kind
Promise me that you will never
Be nobody's darlin' but mine.

You're as sweet as the flowers of springtime
You're as pure as the dew from the rose
I had rather be somebody's darlin'
Than a poor girl that nobody knows.

My Mother is dead and in heaven
My Daddy has gone down below
Sister has gone to meet Mother
An where I'll go, nobody knows.

Goodbye, goodbye little darlin'
I'm leaving this cold world behind
Promise me that you will never
Be nobody's darlin' but mine.
