Walk me out in the morning dew my honey

Walk me out in the morning dew today;

Can't walk you out in the morning dew my honey

Can't walk you out in the morning dew today!



Thought I heard a young girl cry mama,

Thought I heard a young girl cry today-

You didn't hear no young girl crying mama,

You didn't hear no young girl cry today!



Thought I heard a young man cry mama-

Thought I heard a young man cry today-

You didn't hear no young man crying mama

You didn't hear no young man cry today!



Now, there's no more morning dew

Now, there's no more morning dew-

What they've been saying all these years is true

Now, there's no more morning dew!
