Why There's A Tear In My Eye (1931) - The Carter Family
I once loved a beautiful maiden

As fair as the blue skies above

And each night as we wandered together

The moon seemed to smile on our love

We vowed to be true to each other

That nothing could cause us to part

But we never once dreamed that the future

Held only a broken heart

Then there came the night when we parted

We quarreled as all sweethearts do

And I learned what it was to be jealous

When they told me her love was untrue

She told me she had always been faithful

She swore that her love could not die

And then when I did not believe her

She kissed me and told me goodbye

Oh-de-lay-ee-oh de-lay-ee yo-de-lay-ee

I found I had falsely accused her

And went back to make her my bride

And there in the door stood her mother

She told me my sweetheart had died

I went in and knelt down beside her

And there in the hush of that room

I prayed that my maker would take me

And send my soul down to It's doom

So now I have told you the reason

There's always a tear in my eye

Through long weary years I've repented

But I'm longing to lay down and die

And I wonder if I'll be forgiven

When I face the master someday

And I wonder if I'll see my sweetheart
On that beautiful shore far away

Oh-de-lay-ee-oh de-lay-ee yo-de-lay-ee
