Norman Woodlieff turned it into a cautionary tale worthy of Blind Alfred Reed, with some tasty fiddle backing by Posey Rorer.
I FELL IN LOVE WITH A MARRIED MAN
Oh girls, there's something troubling me
Oh girls, there's something troubling me
I'll tell you what the trouble is
I fell in love with a married man
Oh what a careless girl I've been
Oh what a careless girl I've been
Oh I know it was a sin
To fall in love with a married man
Oh how hard it was to part
It broke my sad and aching heart
Oh how hard it was to part
From the one that you love best
It's love, it's love, oh careless love
As sure as the stars shine above
It's love, oh girls, it's careless love
To fall in love with a married man
I'll never do it any more
And cause my poor heart to be sore
It's only once is enough for me
To fall in love with a married man
It's love, it's love, oh careless love
As sure as the stars shine above
So girls forever you'll be sad
If you fall in love with a married man
I'll never do it any more
And cause my poor heart to be sore
It's only once is enough for me
To fall in love with a married man
