• Lyrics:
  I went to see my darling
  Last Saturday night,
  I went to see my darling
  While the moon was shining bright,
  I asked her if she'd marry me
  And whaddya think she said,
  She said she wouldn't marry me
  If the rest of the world was dead:
  
  chorus:
  I ain't nobody's darling
  I'm blue as can be,
  'Cause I ain't got nobody
  To fuss over me.
  If I don't get somebody
  I'll go back to the farm
  {And milk the cows and chickens
   And make love to the chickens
   And take the pigs in swimmin'}
  'Cause I don't give a good gosh darn.
  {Oh! By Jimmy! By Heck!}
  
  I took my darling walking
  Last Saturday night,
  I took my darling walking
  While the moon was shining bright,
  I asked her for a kiss and gee
  Now whaddya think she said,
  She said she wouldn't kiss me
  So I kissed her instead:
