My Darling Hildegarde
Don Reid
[Intro]
My darlin' Hildegard
[Verse 1]
There was a lock on the gate in the front a your house all day
It could then have been out there for me to stay away
Is that my name carved on a dead tree in your yard
Why you treatin' me like this, my darlin' Hildegard?
[Verse 2]
That go home yankee sign on your front door
Well I think that, that was a little bit uncalled for
And my photo on the birdhouse was a cute gesture
Of course I got the message but wasn't that a good picture of me
[Verse 3]
My darlin' Hildegard, please don't be mad
I'll give everything you've never had
If you'll tear down all those signs and disregard
All those things you think of me, my darlin' Hildegard
[Outro]
My darlin' Hildegard
