Dorraine Of Ponchartrain

As I walked by the lake one day by chance my Dorraine passed my way
Then she and I walked hand in hand on the banks of Ponchartrain
I pinned a flower on her heart, I swore we'd never be apart
She vowed her love forever and as I kissed her did the same

Dorraine, my Dorraine, my dark haired little angel
My belle of Ponchartrain

We sat down on the dock and with our hearts and fingers locked
We laughed and talked and joked about when our names are the same
And joking I said honey are you marrying me for money
And it took just one quick look to tell it hurt my dear Dorraine

She jumped and stood above me and she cried why you don't love me
I'm rowing home across the lake you won't see me again
I called and called some more but she rowed fast from the shore
And the clouds brought by a wind began to rain on Ponchartrain

Dorraine, I called Dorraine
Come back my little angel my belle of Ponchartrain

The storm should make her learn that she should make a swift return
But as the rain fell harder I lost sight of my Dorraine
As panic gripped my heart I drew the oars and made my start
To look for her on raging waters and the rain on Ponchartrain

At darkness I still called but no one heard my cries at all
And when the daybreak came then others helped me look for my Dorraine
But there was not a thing afloat except the oars from her rowboat
For all was lost upon the choppy waves and rain on Ponchartrain

Now I come day after day to where my sweetheart rowed away
And I gaze across the water of the rainy Ponchartrain
Just one thing and nothing more ever floated back to shore
Was this flower I hold it is the one I pinned on my Dorraine

Dorraine, my Dorraine, my dark haired little angel
My belle of Ponchartrain

Mirror lyrics:

My belle of Ponchartrain
Dorraine, my Dorraine, my dark haired little angel

Was this flower I hold it is the one I pinned on my Dorraine
Just one thing and nothing more ever floated back to shore
And I gaze across the water of the rainy Ponchartrain
Now I come day after day to where my sweetheart rowed away

For all was lost upon the choppy waves and rain on Ponchartrain
But there was not a thing afloat except the oars from her rowboat
And when the daybreak came then others helped me look for my Dorraine
At darkness I still called but no one heard my cries at all

To look for her on raging waters and the rain on Ponchartrain
As panic gripped my heart I drew the oars and made my start
But as the rain fell harder I lost sight of my Dorraine
The storm should make her learn that she should make a swift return

Come back my little angel my belle of Ponchartrain
Dorraine, I called Dorraine

And the clouds brought by a wind began to rain on Ponchartrain
I called and called some more but she rowed fast from the shore
I'm rowing home across the lake you won't see me again
She jumped and stood above me and she cried why you don't love me

And it took just one quick look to tell it hurt my dear Dorraine
And joking I said honey are you marrying me for money
We laughed and talked and joked about when our names are the same
We sat down on the dock and with our hearts and fingers locked

My belle of Ponchartrain
Dorraine, my Dorraine, my dark haired little angel

She vowed her love forever and as I kissed her did the same
I pinned a flower on her heart, I swore we'd never be apart
Then she and I walked hand in hand on the banks of Ponchartrain
As I walked by the lake one day by chance my Dorraine passed my way
