Lyrics


I've got a dollar 
I've got a silver dime
Put 'em both together
Gonna have myself a good time

Chorus
Hildegard
Hildegard, my love
Hildegard, will you marry me?

I'm not looking for fortune or fame
But if I find a girl in this world
You know I know her name

Chorus
Hildegard
Hildegard, my love
Hildegard, will you marry me?

I'm on a road
Traveling slowly
I'm in the cold
Got to get up
Got to find some loving
Got to get up
I gotta go now

I'm not looking for fortune or fame
But if I find a girl in this world
You know I know her name

I'm on a road
Traveling slowly
I'm in the cold
Got to get up
Got to find some loving
Got to get up
I gotta go now
