** **INTRO: The wind is blowing 'round my cabin I hate to hear that lonesome sound I'm all alone and so downhearted Since my true love ain't around ***CHORUS I hate to see that sun a-sinking Another night to toss and turn Another night to dream about her Another night for her I'll yearn *** She had no cause to go and leave me For I had never done her wrong She left her home and little children Now with another man she's gone ***CHORUS*** The children they are soundly sleeping They don't know their mother's gone What will I do when they awaken And I tell them of their mother's wrong **CHORUS**
