taught sundey school an’ carried a knife
lived in good and lived in strife
but one thang i ain’t nev'a been is loved
had sweet nothin’s whispered in my ear
even had somebody call me dear
stayed with him for more’n a year
and once or twice i shed a tear
but i ain’t nev'a been loved
even had somebody call me dear

not till now
till you
and kissed on an’ i been loved on
but i ain’t nev'a been loved

hello there map! thanks so much - i am more than honored to have lady day even thought of in connection with my simple little verses - she could sing the phone book and break my heart!
