Dark Hollow 
Lyrics: traditional
Music: traditional

I'd rather be in some dark hollow
Where the sun don't ever shine
Than to be in some big city
In a small room with a girl on my mind

Chorus:
So blow your whistle freight train
Take me far on down the track
I'm going away, I'm leaving today
I'm going but I ain't coming back

I'd rather be in some dark hollow
Where the sun don't ever shine
Than to see you another man's darling
And to know that you'll never me mine

[chorus]

I'd rather be in some dark hollow
Where the sun don't ever shine
Than to be home alone, knowing that you're gone
Would cause me to lose my mind

[chorus]
I'm going away, I'm leaving today
Well I'm going, but I ain't coming back
