I took a young girl for my wife
Don't you let me down
But her hair turned gray on our wedding night
Don't you let me down
Don't you let me down
Don't you let me down
Her hair turned gray on our wedding night
Don't you let me down
I bought a house high on a hill
Don't you let me down
It turned to dust as houses will
Don't you let me down
Don't you let me down
Don't you let me down
It turned to dust as houses will
Don't you let me down
I saved a nickel every day
Don't you let me down
'Til the bank man stole it all away
Don't you let me down
Don't you let me down
Don't you let me down
The bank man stole it all away
Don't you let me down
A truer friend you'll never find
Don't you let me down
'Til the day I leave you all behind
Don't you let me down
