Lover's Quarrel - The Stanley Brothers

Jack and May sweethearts were they

They were engaged to be wed

Many a promise Jack made her

Many a love word was said

But they quarreled one night

As most true lovers do

And she bid him not come any more

She gave to him his hat

Jack started to go

But he lingered to say at the door

Tie up love's broken cords

And let us be sweethearts again

Darling you know I love you

To part would cause me pain

So let's forget to past

Make up and kiss

Make up and be lovers again

Years rolled by

And neither one was wed

And one morning Jack was found dead

She cannot tell you why

But the tears roll from her eyes

And she goes to the grave every day

Lonesome and sad

Her sweetheart is not here

These words they still ring in her ears

Tie up love's broken cords

And let us be sweethearts again

Darling you know I love you

To part would cause me pain

So let's forget to past

Make up and kiss

Make up and be lovers again
