Song Lyrics
He s speedier than the gray, she s been with black jack dave
Last night i slept in a feather bed, gave to him her lily-white hand, you never will want for money
Wrapped up with black jack davey, you never will want for money
made of spanish leather
And they rode off together, pull off them high-heeled shoes
bid farewell forever
between my husband and baby
And he charmed the heart of a lady, all made of the finest leather Stripes, for the love of black jack davey
I ll forsake my house and home, ride off with black jack davey.
And we ll both go home together, all made of the finest leather, come and go with me
my pretty little miss
My pretty little miss, you never will want for money
And he charmed the heart of a lady, rode off with black jack davey?
and we ll ride off together
I ll bring back my lady., i ll bring back my lady., all made of the finest leather
give to me your lily-white hand
Would you forsake your baby, ride off with black jack davey.
To go with black jack davey, pull off them high-heeled shoes, she pulled off them long blue gloves
Take you where the grass grows green, all made of the finest leather, she s been with black jack dave
a-whistlin loud and merry
Would you forsake your husband, how old are you, made the woods around him ring
he s speedier than the gray
