I wish to the Lord I never been
born,
Nor died when I was young,
I never would've seen them two brown eyes,
Nor heard that flattering tongue, my love,
Or heard that flattering tongue.
|
I truly understand that you love
another man,
And your heart shall no longer be mine.
I truly understand that you love another man,
And your heart shall no longer be mine.
|
Who will shoe your little feet,
Who will glove your hand,
Who will kiss your red rosy cheeks,
When I'm in the foreign land, my love,
When I'm in the foreign land, my love.
|
I truly understand that you love
another man,
And your heart shall no longer be mine.
I truly understand that you love another man,
And your heart shall no longer be mine.
|
Remember what you told me, dear,
As we stood side by side,
You promised that you'd marry me,
And be no other man's bride, my love,
And be no other man's bride, my love.
|
I truly understand that you love
another man,
And your heart shall no longer be mine.
I truly understand that you love another man,
And your heart shall no longer be mine.
|
I never will listen what another
woman says,
Let her hair be black or brown,
For I'd rather be on the top of some hill,
And the rain a-pouring down, down,
And the rain a-pouring down, down.
|
I truly understand that you love
another man,
And your heart shall no longer be mine.
I truly understand that you love another man,
And your heart shall no longer be mine.
|
My father will shoe my little
feet,
My mother will glove my hand,
And you will kiss my red rosy cheeks,
When I'm in the foreign land, O love,
When I'm in the foreign land, O love.
|
I truly understand that you love
another man,
And your heart shall no longer be mine.
I truly understand that you love another man,
And your heart shall no longer be mine.
