WANTED: RECORD OR SHEET MUSIC OF A SONG
Mom learned this from a record, probably around 1917. Think the title is "Cross My Heart and Hope to Die" - maybe on the Bluebird label. First line- 'There's something mighty wrong with me, I grew on someone's lemon tree. I'm just the most unlucky kid, accused of things I never did.' Also, 'Cross my heart and hope to die if I ever, ever told a lie' is repeated through out the song.
