Come All Ye Fair and Tender Maidens
Come all ye fair and tender maidens Take warning how you court young men They're like a star of a summer's morning First they appear and then they're gone
They'll tell to you some loving story They'll swear to you their love is true Straightway they'll go and court another And that's the love they had for you
If I had known before I courted I never would have courted none I'd lock my heart in a box of golden And fastened it up with a silver key
Oh, do you remember our days of courtin' Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com When your head lay upon my breast You could make me believe with the falling of your eyes That the sun rose in the west
I wish I was a little sparrow And I had wings and I could fly I'd fly away to my own true lover And when he speaks I won't deny
But I am not no little sparrow I have no wings neither can I fly I'll sit right down in my grief and sorrow And let my troubles pass me by
