| Lyrics: | 1st verse:]
Kindly stop that music from playing, "Oh Promise Me"
Because it makes me sad,
so sad
It brings back to my memory
Years and years of misery
Thoughts of one who
promised me
A love I thought I had
[chorus:]
He promised me that someday he
would marry me
He promised me a beautiful home
One down by the sea
He promised that
he'd pay
For the wedding day
On the first of May
Then he moved away, and all he
left
Were the promises he promised me
[2nd verse:]
Sealskins, autos, dresses
and diamonds he promised me
And told me that someday he'd pay
My ringless fingers know
he's gone
All my rings he put in pawn
Even took the tickets on
The day he moved away |
