Lyrics
Green grow the lilacs and soft falls the dew
I'm lonely, my darling, since parting with you;
But by our next meeting I'll hope to prove true
And change the green lilacs to the Red, White and Blue.
I used to have a sweetheart, but now I have none
Since she's gone and left me, I care not for one
Since she's gone and left me, contented I'll be,
For she loves another one better than me.
I wrote my love letters in red rosy lines,
She sent me an answer all twisted and twined;
Saying,"Keep your love letters and I will keep mine
You write to your love and I'll write to mine."
