Loading...

[verse 1]
oh, it happened for to be on a cold winter’s evening
a fair maid sat waiting alone
she was thinking on her father, likewise her aged mother
and also her true lover john

[verse 2]
now young johnny he was sweet and he promised for to meet
but he tarried an hour too long
and he met with great delay which caused him for to stray
and she weary waiting all alone

[verse 3]
when young johnny came at last and he found the door was fast
and he slowly, slowly tinkled at the pin
and this fair maid she arose and gathered on hеr clothes
in order to let young johnny in

[verse 4]
wеll, he held her in his arms and off to bed they went
and it’s there they lay talking of their plan;
“now, i wish,” this maid says she, “this night would prove to be
as long since the world first began.”

[verse 5]
“fly up, o fly up, my pretty little c~ck
and don’t crow before it breaks day
and your wings they shall be made of the very beaten gold
and your beak of the silvery grey.”
[verse 6]
but oh this pretty little c~ck, so cruel as he was
well he crowed out an hour too soon;
and he sent my love away not by the break of day
it being only the light of the moon

[verse 7]
well this fair maid she arose and quickly followed after
“when will you come to see me?”
“when the fishes they do fly, the seas they all run dry
and seven moons shine brightly o’er yon lea.”

[verse 8]
now i used to think my love was as constant unto me
as the stones that lie under the ground
but now since i do find he’s altered his mind
i would rather live single than be bound
