Poor Girls Of Ontario

Lyrics

I'll sing you a song of a horrible past
 It goes by the name of my love, I guess
 I can not have a bow at all
 I'm sure to be skipping out in the fall
 And one by one, they all clear out
 Thinkin' to better myself, no doubt
 Caring little how far I go
 From the poor little girls of Ontario
 Well first I got mad on Edith Brown
 The prettiest girl in all the town
 I tipped my hat and sailed away
 Soon to be stoppin' in Manitomba
 Won over little Jenny with my white Corvette
 A high still color and a new plug hat
 I said if I stayed she'd have to beg
 I'm on my way to Winnipeg
 And one by one, they all clear out
 Thinkin' to better myself, no doubt
 Caring little how far I go
 From the poor little girls of Ontario
 Then a long-legged girl with a button nose
 I really though she would propose
 But she packed her things and now she's gone
 Clear out to Saskatchewan
 So I packed my clothes in a carpet sack
 I'll go out there and I'll never come back
 And I'll find me a girl and a good one too
 And I'll be the one to see it through
 And one by one, they all clear out
 Thinkin' to better themselves, no doubt
 Caring little how far they go
 From the travelin' man in Ontario
 I'll sing you a song of a horrible past
 It goes by the name of my love, I guess
