All the Good Times are Past and Gone

All the Good Times Are Past and Gone

traditional (public domain song adapted by Kim Beggs)

from the album Wanderer's Paean

Kim Beggs – vocals ⁄ guitar

Bob Hamilton – vocals ⁄ rayco ⁄ upright bass

Annie Avery – harmonium

All the good times are past and gone

All the good times are over

All the good times are past and gone

Little darling don't you weep no more

I wish to the lord I'd never been born

Or died when I was young

I never would have seen your sparkling blue eyes

Or heard your beautiful song

Don't you hear the turtle dove

That flies from pine to pine

He's morning for his own true love

Just like I mourn for mine

Don't you see the passenger train

Goin around the bend

Its's takin away my own true love

To never return again

Come back, come back my own true love

And stay a while with me

If ever I've had a friend in this world

You've been a friend to me
