VERSE 1
A bunch of young boys one night at a club
Was talkin' of sweethearts they had
They were gay an' happy except one lad
The one -- --- -- -- -- - --- - -
VERSE 2
Says, come Ned won't you join us
One of th boys said
For surely, some girl has loved you
Then raisin' his head, th boy said
Yes boys, I'm in love with two
VERSE 3
One is young an' gay
The other is gray, bent an' ole
One hair is silver gray, bent an' ole
One hair is silver gray, the other one is like pure gold
They both are dearer than life to me
From either one I would part
One is my Mother, God bless 'er, I love 'er
The other one is my sweetheart
