My Pretty Quadroon Songtext
von Johnny Bond

I′ll never forget when I met
Sweet Cora, my pretty quadroon
I see her dear eyes shining yet
As she vowed to be true beneath the moon
But happiness fades like the dawn
And before the next full of the moon
The Grim Reaper knocked at my door
And took Cora, my pretty quadroon Oh, my pretty quadroon
My flower that faded too soon
My heart's like the strings on my banjo
All broke for my pretty quadroon
Oh, my pretty quadroon
My flower that faded too soon
My heart′s like the strings on my banjo
All broke for my pretty quadroon
