about

I found this song in the John Lomax American Folk Songs and Ballads
book, and was also collected by Cecil Sharp in Burnsville, NC 1918 from
Mrs. Effie Mitchell, and printed in his book English Folk Songs in the
Appalachian Mountains. The final verse here and verses found in the
original, omitted in this version, share words with other ballads such as
'Butcher Boy' and 'I Wish, I Wish'.

lyrics

Every Night When The Sun Goes In
Every Night When The Sun Goes In
Every Night When The Sun Goes In
I hang down my head, and mournful cry.

True love don’t weep, true love don’t mourn,
True love don’t weep, true love don’t mourn,
True love don’t weep, or mourn for me,
I’m going away to Marble Town.

I wish to the Lord that train would come,
I wish to the Lord that train would come,
I wish to the Lord that train would come,
to take me back where I come from.

True love don’t weep, true love don’t mourn,
True love don’t weep, true love don’t mourn,
True love don’t weep, or mourn for me,
I’m going away to Marble Town.

I wish to the Lord my babe was born,
and sittin’ on his daddy’s knee.
And me, poor girl, was dead and gone,
and the green grass growin’ over me.

True love don’t weep, true love don’t mourn,
True love don’t weep, true love don’t mourn,
True love don’t weep, or mourn for me,
I’m going away to Marble Town.

I have listened to bluegrass and old-timey style banjo music for many years. Nora Brown has the most poetic interpretation of these styles that I have heard so far. She is the John Fahey of banjo (but also with striking vocals). brit_b
