I expect to live single
I never will marry
And a change in the cloud's design
There's many a change in a young man's heart
I never will marry
Well, there's many a change in the winter wind
For the only man I ever loved
Has gone on the morning train
All the days of my life
I'll be no man's wife
He's gone, he's gone like the morning dew
With a long and a lonesome moan
I never will marry
I expect to live single
I'll be no man's wife
And left me all alone
All the days of my life
Well, the train pulled out, the whistle blew
I expect to live single
But never a change in mine
I'll be no man's wife
