Danny Dear Lyrics by Hank Locklin

Please Help Me I’m Falling (Box Set)

0

[Verse 1]
Danny was a handsome lad close on seventeen
And every girl he met was mad to be Danny's queen

[Refrain 1]
Danny dear, oh Danny dear, Danny don't be cold
Now's the time for loving dear, not when we grow old

[Verse 2]
First came Kate and then came Sue and after her came Jane
And each girl in her turn would sing to Danny this refrain

[Refrain 1]
Danny dear, oh Danny dear, Danny don't be cold
Now's the time for loving dear, not when we grow old

[Verse 3]
But Danny was the roving kind and he would not stay
In the arms of any girl even when she'd say

[Refrain 1]
Danny dear, oh Danny dear, Danny don't be cold
Now's the time for loving dear, not when we grow old

[Verse 4]
Then one day he met a girl as fair as any rose
And Danny's roving days were done for she made him propose

[Refrain 2]
Aileen dear, oh Aileen dear, Aileen don't be cold
Now's the time for loving dear, not when we grow old
