about

My Little Doney Gal
Traditional

lyrics

Oh, my little honey gal, don't you guess
Better be making your wedding dress
Wedding dress
Better be making your wedding dress

Oh, she wouldn't say yes
Wouldn't say no
All she'd do was sit and sew
Sit and sew
All she'd do was sit and sew

Oh, it's already made, trimmed in white
Gonna get married on Saturday night
Saturday night
Gonna get married on Saturday night

Oh, it's already made, trimmed in green
Prettiest thing we've ever seen
Ever seen
Prettiest thing we've ever seen

Oh, my little honey gal, don't you guess
Better be making your wedding dress
Wedding dress
Better be making your wedding dress

Oh, she didn't say yes
Didn't say no
All she'd do was sit and sew
Sit and sew
All she'd do was sit and sew
