I went to church on Sunday, my love, she passed me by
I knew her mind was changing by the roving of her eye
By the roving of her eye, by the roving of her eye
I knew her mind was changing by the roving of her eye.

My love's fair and proper her waist is neat and small
She is quite good-looking and that' s the best of all
And that' s the best of all and that' s the best of all
And she is quite good-looking and that' s the best of all.

Oh, Hannah, loving Hannah come give to me your hand
You said that if you're married that I will be the one
That I will be the one that I will be the one
You said that if you're married that I will be the one.

I will go down by the river when everyone's asleep
I'll think of loving Hannah and then sit down and grieve
And then sit down and grieve and then sit down and grieve
I'll think of loving Hannah and then sit down and grieve.

I went to church on Sunday, my love, she passed me by
I knew her mind was changing by the roving of her eye
By the roving of her eye, by the roving of her eye
I knew her mind was changing by the roving of her eye.
