Words and Music by Hank Snow



One heart too many I have broken ,

Love dreams that faded away.

Too many teardrops have fallen,

Too many vows cast aside.

Soft wedding bells should be ringing,

For us in the chapel tonight,

But this morning they tolled,

And her bright band of gold

Was returned with this message tonight:



CHORUS

Your sweetheart has left today,

Heart broken, God took her away.

That silk gown of white for her wedding tonight,

She wore as they laid her away.

Tho' she died for a love all in vain,

Her last words were calling your name;

As I walked to her grave where the blue bonnets wave,

I cried but my tears were too late.



POEM

Tonight, sweetheart, as I kneel here alone beside you

And my tears stain the flowers on your grave,

In deep regret I think of the heart that I have wounded

Of the sorrow, and grief, and the life I could have saved.

Yes, tonight darling, you were to be my loving bride

But all that I have left now as I bow to pray,

Is your ring, a picture, the sad message that they sent me,

And this rose that I am taking from your grave.

    "Well come all you children give a listen to me let me tell you bout a new boogie beat

  • Music Makin Mama from Memphis
    "Listen to a story about a gal I know
    She's my music makin' mama, I'm her hillbilly beau
    She's sweeter than the music when she tickles the strings
    Sweeter than the flowers down in New Orleans..."
  • The Gold Rush Is Over
    "Oh! the gold rush is over so honey bye bye
    Stake out your claim now on some other guy
    I've wined you and dined you 'til my money is gone
    But the gold rush is over and the bum's rush is on..."

    All my teardrops are dried
    No more walkin' the floor
    With that burnin' inside..."
