Cordelia Brown

Oh, Cordelia Brown, although' you never tell,

Oh, Cordelia Brown, still I know your secret well

Yes you fell in love with Ned

And when he left, your head turned red

And right well you know,

That what I say is true

Oh, Cordelia Brown, what make your head so red

Oh, Cordelia Brown, what make your head so red

You say you come out in the sunshine

With nothing on your head

Oh, Cordelia Brown, what make your head so red

Oh, Cordelia Brown, yes I've been far and wide

Now I'm telling you, every girl wants to be a bride

So I know what happen to you

And please strike me down if it isn't true

He said he never would wed,

And that when your head turned red

Oh, Cordelia Brown, what make your head so red

Oh, Cordelia Brown, what make your head so red

You say you come out in the sunshine

With nothing on your head

Oh, Cordelia Brown, what make your head so red

Oh, Cordelia Brown, Saw you waiting' at the train,

Yes, he's gone away, might never return again

Now miss Brown may I confess,

I've yearned this long for your caress

Since your head so red

I think I'll marry Mabel instead

Oh, Cordelia Brown, what make your head so red

Oh, Cordelia Brown, what make your head so red

You say you come out in the sunshine

With nothing on your head

Oh, Cordelia Brown, what make your head so red
