TAKE BACK YOUR GOLD
(M.H. Rosenfeld)
From the film "Those Redheads From Seattle" (1953)
The Bell Sisters - 1953
Take Back Your Gold (Record Version)
Take it back, Take it back
Please take back your gold
Take back your gold
For gold can never buy me
Take back your bribe
And promise you'll be true
Give me the love
The love that you deny me
Make me your wife
That's all I ask of you
I saw youth and maiden
On a lonely city street
And thought them lovers
At their meeting place
Until, as I drew near
I heard the girl's sad voice entreat
The one who heeded
Not her tear-stained fate (and we quote)
Take it back, take it back, Jack
For gold can never buy me
Take it back, take it back, take it back
Promise you'll be true
Give me the love that you deny me
Don't falter, gonna lead you to the altar
So take it back, take it back, take it back, Jack
Take back your gold
Take back your gold
