Go 'way From My Window Songtext
von Marlene Dietrich
Go 'way From My Window Songtext
The following one is very, very old American folks song
It has been heard first or written first, or heard of in the 17th century
It′s called "Go'way from My Window"
Go′way from my window
Go'way from my door
Go'way, ′way, ′way from my bedside
And bother me no more
And bother me no more
I'll give you back your letters
I′ll give you back your ring
But I'll never forget my own true love
As long as songbirds sing
As long as songbirds sing
Go on, tell all my brothers
Tell all my sisters too
That the reason why my heart is broke
Is on account of you
Is on account of you
Go on your way, be happy
Go on your way and rest
But remember, dear, that you′re the one
I really did love best
I really did love best
Go'way from my window
Go′way from my door
Go'way, 'way, ′way from my bedside
And bother me no more
And bother me no more
It has been heard first or written first, or heard of in the 17th century
It′s called "Go'way from My Window"
Go′way from my window
Go'way from my door
Go'way, ′way, ′way from my bedside
And bother me no more
And bother me no more
I'll give you back your letters
I′ll give you back your ring
But I'll never forget my own true love
As long as songbirds sing
As long as songbirds sing
Go on, tell all my brothers
Tell all my sisters too
That the reason why my heart is broke
Is on account of you
Is on account of you
Go on your way, be happy
Go on your way and rest
But remember, dear, that you′re the one
I really did love best
I really did love best
Go'way from my window
Go′way from my door
Go'way, 'way, ′way from my bedside
And bother me no more
And bother me no more
