    Miss your little kiss
    Miss your little song
    I'm never never way
    Tho, the old clock weirdly ticks
    For I have no fear
    That you'll be here
    To your own Marie at six.

    On this pretty little nest
    Way out in the West
    May the sun keep ever shining
    May no cloud be allowed
    Ever to enshroud. Tho ever bright is living,
    And may Heaven send,
    Until life's end
    All blessings that it can
    To comfort the pair
    Whom I've brought there,
    Marie and her little man.
    chorus.
