Loving Hannah
Traditional. Arrangement Mary Black
I went to church on Sunday
My love, she passed me by
I knew her mind was changing
By the roving of her eye
By the roving of her eye
By the roving of her eye
I knew her mind was changing
By the roving of her eye
My love's fair and proper
Her waist is neat and small
She is quite good-looking
And that' s the best of all
And that' s the best of all
And that' s the best of all
And she is quite good-looking
And that' s the best of all
Oh, Hannah, loving Hannah
Come give to me your hand
You said that if you're married
That I will be the one
That I will be the one
That I will be the one
You said that if you're married
That I will be the one
I will go down by the river
When everyone's asleep
I'll think of loving Hannah
And then sit down and grieve
And then sit down and grieve
And then sit down and grieve
I'll think of loving Hannah
And then sit down and grieve
I went to church on Sunday
My love she passed me by
I knew her mind was changing
By the roving of her eye
By the roving of her eye
By the roving of her eye
I knew her mind was changing
By the roving of her eye
