"On the dewy grass so green For the wee birds all have come and gone Since I my true love have seen Since I my true love have seen" "Oh then I'll not sit on the grass," she said. "Nor be a love of thine For I hear you love a Connaught maid And your heart's no longer mine," she said "And your heart's no longer mine." "Nor I'll not heed what an old man says For his days are nearly done And I'll not heed what a young man says For he's fair to many's the one," she said. "For he's fair to many's the one." "And I'll not heed what any man says Let his hair be white, black, or brown Save that he were on top of some high gallows tree And swearin' he'd wish to come down," she said. "And swearin' he'd wish to come down." "But I will climb a high, high tree And I'll rob a wild bird's nest And back I'll bring whatever I do find To the arms that I love best," she said. "To the arms that I love best." @courtship @Irish @love filename[ VERDANTB RPf ===DOCUMENT BOUNDARY Related Lyrics Random lyrics: Violets Of Dawn, Virgin Sturgeon, Virgin Sturgeon 2, Viva Lamour, W B A, Wabash Cannonball, Wagoners Lad, Wait For The Tide, Wait Till The Sun Shines Nellie, Wake Island, Wake Nicodemus, Wal I Swan Git Up Napoleon, Wales Anthem Text, Walk In Jerusalem, Walk In The Light, Walk On By Wait On The Corner, Walkin On My Wheels, Walking A Bulldog, Wall of Silence, Walls And Windows, Walls Have Ears, Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing With Bears, Waly Waly, Waly Waly Jamie Douglas, Wandering Angus, War Begets Poverty, War Song, Wars Of Germany, Waste Not Want Not, Water Is Wide, Waterbound, Waterloo, Waters Of Babylon, Waters Of March ?guas De Maro, Waters Of Tyne, Watkins Ale, Way Down In Dixie, Way I Behaved, Way Of Men, Ways Of Man, We Are Called The Girl Scouts, We Are The Roving Minstrels, We Be Soldiers Three, We Be Three Poor Mariners, We Have Fed Our Sea For A Thousand Years, We Have Fed You All For A Thousand Years, We Never Mention Aunt Clara, We Parted On The Shore, We Pity Our Bosses Five, Other Unknown song Lyrics 99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall Lyrics A Bird in a Gilded Cage Lyrics A Fenian Song Lyrics A Fool Such As I Lyrics A Friend Like You Lyrics A Hero of the Wrong War Lyrics A Horse Named Bill Lyrics A Hundred Years from Now Lyrics A Kangaroo Sat on an Oak Lyrics A Little Bit of Solitude Lyrics A Living Wage Lyrics ...Show All Other Artists Unknown Prophets Lyrics Unleashed Lyrics Unleashed Power Lyrics Unlimited Nation Lyrics Unlimited Sound Lyrics UNLOCO Lyrics Unlord Lyrics UNLV Lyrics Unni Wilhelmsen Lyrics Uno Svenningsson Lyrics All lyrics are property and copyright of their owners and are strictly for educational purposes only. lyricstrue.net Copyright © 2005-2007 All Rights Reserved., , Privacy policy
