Poor Butterfly
The Cadillacs
Words & Music by John Golden & Raymond Hubbell
Recorded by The Hilltoppers, 1954 (#12)
Poor But - ter - fly 'neath the blossoms wait -ing
Poor Butterfly, for she loved him so
The moments pass into hours, the hours pass into years
And as she smiles through her tears, she murmurs low
"The moon and I know that he'll be faith - ful
I'm sure he'll come back, by and by
But if he don't come back, then I never sigh or cry --
I just must die." Poor But - ter - fly
