Sally, Don’t You Grieve lyrics

[Chorus]
Oh, well, when I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve
When I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve
When I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve
And I told her not to grieve after me

[Verse 1]
I got a restless foot and a rovin' mind
I'm gonna leave this town behind
Leave my honey so sweet and kind
And I told her not to grieve after me

[Chorus]
When I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve
When I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve
When I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve
And I told her not to grieve after me

[Verse 2]
Then I said, "Goodbye, Sally, my heart's delight
I'm comin' back when the moon is bright
If you're not here, it'll serve me right
Cause I told you not to grieve after me"

[Chorus]
Oh, when I'm gone, don't you grieve, my Sally
When I'm gone, don't you grieve, my Sally
When I'm gone, don't you grieve, my Sally
And I told her not to grieve after me
[Outro]
And I told her not to grieve after me
