May you never lay your head down
Without a hand to hold
May you never make your bed out in the cold
You're just like a great and strong brother of mine
And you know that I love you true
You never talk dirty behind my back
And I know that there's those that do
Please won't you please won't you bear it in mind
Love is a lesson to learn in our time
Please won't you please won't you bear it in mind for me
May you never lay your head down
Without a hand to hold
May you never make your bed out in the cold
You're just like a good and close sister to me
And you know that I love you true
You hold no blade to stab me in my back
And I know that there's those that do
Please won't you please won't you bear it in mind
Love is a lesson to learn in our time
Please won't you please won't you bear it in mind for me
May you never lay your head down
Without a hand to hold
May you never make your bed out in the cold
Well you're just like a great and strong brother of mine
And you know that I love you like I should
You never talk about me behind my back
And I know that there's time you could
Please won't you please, please bear it in mind
Life is a lesson to learn in our time
Won't you please won't you bear it in mind for me
May you never lose your temper
If you get hit in a bar room fight
May you never lose your woman over night
May you never lay your head down
Without a hand to hold
May you never make your bed out in the cold
Please won't you please, please won't you bear it in mind
Life is a lesson to learn in our time
Won't you please won't you bear it in mind for me
