Love Will Never Conquer Me lyrics

[Banjo Solo]

[Verse 1]
Ah-Once I courted a pretty fair maid
And she was handsome, tall, and young
Until at length I did discover
That she had a false and fluttering tongue
If I had've loved her foolish would I be
But love will never never conquer me

[Chorus]
No nor anyone will me control
Or keep me from my flowing bowl
When I am single, single I am free
Love will never never conquer me

[Banjo Solo]

[Verse 2]
Perhaps some day I'll get some riches
And I might have to take a wifе
For we would fight for the old britches
And shе would lead a terrible life
But boys know this never could be
For love will never never conquer me
[Chorus]
No nor anyone will me control
Or keep me from my flowing bowl
When I am single, single I am free
Love will never never conquer me

[Banjo Solo]

[Verse 3]
Perhaps some day I take a notion
And I might cross the ocean wave
To where I could die without emotion
And these last words put above my grave:
"Here lies a youth who never was tied
To any old nag or scolding bride
For when I am single, single I am free
And love will never never conquer me"

[Chorus]
No nor anyone will me control
Or keep me from my flowing bowl
When I am single, single I am free
And love will never never conquer me
