Love Aint for Keeping
Layin’ on my back
In the newly mown grass
Rain is coming down
But the clouds will surely pass
The seeds are burstin’
The spring’s a-seepin’
Lay down my darling
Love ain’t for keepin’
Black ash from the foundry
Hangs like a hood
But the air is perfumed
By the burning firewood
You bring me tea
Say, “The babe’s a-sleepin'”
Lay down beside me
Love ain’t for keeping’
(Guitar Solo)
Lay down beside me
Love ain’t for keepin’
Lay down my darlin’
Love ain’t for keepin’
(Musical Interlude and Solo)
Lay down beside me
Love ain’t for keeping
Lay down my darlin’
Love ain’t for keepin’
