Beautiful Isle O'er The Sea

Anita Carter


Beautiful isle o'er the sea o'er the sea
Beautiful isle o'er the sea o'er the sea
There's someone waiting for me

I cannot be your sweetheart I'll tell you the reason why
My mama always told me to pass a gambler by

Beautiful isle o'er the sea o'er the sea...
[ ac.guitar ]
Now all young men take warning if you want my heart my hand
You'd better quit your gambling and be a thinkful man

Beautiful isle o'er the sea o'er the sea...

Go prove yourself be faithful go prove yourself be true
And sometime in the future perhaps I'll marry you
