Careless Love

Cat. #1424 (MFH #112) - As sung by Bill Greer, Springfield, Missouri on January 19, 1967

VERSE 1
Love, O love, O careless love
Love, O love, O careless love
See what careless love can do

VERSE 2
I love my Mamma an' my Papa too
I love my Mamma an' my Papa too
But I'd leave them both to go with you

VERSE 3
Once I wore my apron low
Couldn't keep you from my door

VERSE 4
Now, my apron strings won't pin
Now, my apron strings won't pin
You pass me by but won't come in
See what careless love can do
