Mable LIVE 03:34
Mable Oh Mabeline Im askin you this question Oh Mable I am on my knees Im askin you, Im beggin please Just turn around Oh Mabeline I must make a confession Oh I have loved another sure But never one like you before So don't you go walkin out that door and leave Oh Im a pleadin now for you to give me a chance Come on and take my hand, why don't you give me this dance Oh Mabeline Oh Mabeline I never been much good at guessin Your eyes are big and bright as stars And they wander off at passin cars Oh how I wish that you could tell me whats on your mind Oh Mabeline I would take my Smith and Wesson And throw deep down in the well And tell it all to go to hell If you would stay and promise to be mine Oh your long black hair Is enough for a man To lay his weapons down And place a bet on his land Oh Mabeline

Private Roberts, Division 43 On his way home on a plane across the sea He was so close now But home still seemed so far away Out the window Charlie watched the sky And all those memories like clouds just passed him by Last time they were together Was a year ago today They all gathered in the living room to wait After a couple hours just assumed his plane was late But little did they know that old Charlie wouldnt show Not now or forever Yeah everyone was waiting Down at his mom and dad’s His Aunt Caroline and his good old Uncle Doug They even lit the candles upon his cake Figured anytime old Charlie would show up But he didnt, no. In a letter to his family and friends He said nothin’s gonna feel as good again That his memories were better left memories And that was that.

Lyrics:

Mable

Oh Mabeline
Im askin you this question
Oh Mable I am on my knees
Im askin you, Im beggin please
Just turn around

Oh Mabeline
I must make a confession
Oh I have loved another sure
But never one like you before
So don't you go walkin out that door and leave

Oh Im a pleadin now
for you to give me a chance
Come on and take my hand,
why don't you give me this dance
Oh Mabeline

Oh Mabeline
I never been much good at guessin
Your eyes are big and bright as stars
And they wander off at passin cars
Oh how I wish that you could tell me whats on your mind

Oh Mabeline
I would take my Smith and Wesson
And throw it deep down in the well
And tell it all to go to hell
If you would stay and promise to be mine

Oh your long black hair
Is enough for a man
To lay his weapons down
And place a bet on his land
Oh Mabeline
