Bill Monroe Sailor's Plea Lyrics:
Dear sweetheart as I write to you my heart is
filled with pain For if those things I hear are
true I'll never see you again They tell me darlin'

nothin' could come between That in my arms someday
you'd be my wife and lovely Queen I built you that
cozy home and made a garden there And planted too
with my own hands sweet flowers rich and fair

My future hopes are placed in you you've been my
guidin' star Please write and tell me that you're
true to the sailor who waits afar Just tell me
that you love me yet still long to be my wife I'll
return and then we'll wed and live a happy life
