Take me and love me if you want me
But don’t ever treat me unkind
Cause i had that trouble already
and it left me with a dark turn of mind

Now i see the bones in the river
I feel the wind through the pines
And i hear the shadows a-calling
To a girl with a dark turn of mind

But Oh ain’t the nighttime so lovely to see
You never know how happy i be
When the sun’s goin down

Believe me if i’m feeling too lonely
Full as the fruit on the vine
You know some girls are bright as the morning
And some have a dark turn of mind

You know some girls are bright as the morning
And some girls are blessed with a dark turn of mind
