American Old-time song lyrics from www.traditionalmusic.co.uk 
THOSE SINGLE DAYS OF OLD. 
Those simple days, or days of old, when I knew no care or strife, Fortune tellers false tales have told, when love made me a bride; Soon I found love but a dream and marriage made love cold, How different I find wedded days to those single days of old. How different I find wedded days to those single days of old. 
Those single days, or days of old, when I knew no care or strife, My whims and frets he humored, and all I did was right; Now everything I do is wrong, he is distant, cross and cold. How different I find wedded days to those single days of old. How different I find wedded days to those single days of old. 
He always has an appointment made, and an excuse to stay away, He leaves me alone at night, and leaves me alone all day; He takes his love with him now, to another girls house he goes, How different I find wedded days to those 6ingle days of old. How different I find wedded days to those single days of old. 
My courage failed, my health gave way, he thought that I would die, It brought the rover home again, with a tear in both his eyes; His home he loves, he makes amends, he is scarce ever from my side, How much more blessed are wedded days to those single days of old. How much more blessed are wedded days to those single days of old
