SOMEBODY'S TALL AND HANDSOME (SOMEBODY) Sung by: Mrs. W.N. Osborne (and Mrs. Rhoda Coleman?) Recorded in Cord, AR, 8/21/57 Click here to listen to the original recording Somebody's brave and true, Somebody's hair is very dark, And somebody's eyes are blue. Somebody came to see me, Somebody came last night, Somebody asked me to marry him, And of course I said, "All right." The ring is on my finger; Of course, you cannot guess The one who placed it there The night I told him yes.
