Gold Watch and Chain
Chorus
Oh I'll pawn you my gold watch and chain, love
And I'll pawn you my gold wedding ring
Oh, I'll pawn you this heart in my bosom
Only say that you love me again
Darling, how can I stay here without you
I'll have nothing to cheer my poor heart
This old world will seem sad, love, without you
Tell me now that we're never to part
Take back all the gifts you have given
The diamond ring and the lock of your hair
That old frame with your picture inside it
It's a face that is false but it's fair
Tell me why that you do not love me
Tell me why that your smile is not bright
Tell me why you have grown so cold-hearted
Is there no kiss for me love tonight
