don t forget me little darling while i m growing old and gray just a little thought before i m going far away i ll be waiting on the hillside where the wild red roses grow on the sunny side of the mountain where the rippling waters flow don t forget about those days we courted many years ago don t forget those promises you gave me and so it s been so long dear since i ve seen you but my love still lingers on don t forget me little darling though our love affair seems gone tell me darling in your letter do you ever think of me i wonder little darling where you can be i ll be waiting on the hillside on the day when you will call on the sunny side of the mountain where the rippling waters fall
