  1. “I Truly Understand” (Traditional) (1:51)

Remember what you said, my dear, when we
Stood side by side, you swore
You’d love no one but me
And be no other man’s bride, my dear
Be no other man’s bride

And I truly understand
That you love another man
And your heart shall no longer be mine

I wish to the Lord I’d never been born or died
When I was young than seen
Them two brown eyes of yours
Or heard that flattering tongue, my dear
Heard that flattering tongue

And I truly understand
That you love another man
And your heart shall no longer be mine

Now who’s gonna shoe your pretty little foot?
Who’s gonna glove your hand?
Who’s gonna kiss your ruby red lips
When I’m in the foreign land, my dear?
When I’m in the foreign land

And I truly understand
That you love another man
And your heart shall no longer be mine

And I truly understand
That you love another man
And your heart shall no longer be mine
