Blackwaterside |
| One morning fair I took he air |
| Down by blackwater side |
| 'Twas gazing all around me |
| The Irish lad I spied |
| All through the fore part of the night |
| We lay in sport and play |
| Till this young man arose and gathered his clothes |
| Saying 'fare thee well today |
| That’s not the promise that you gave to me |
| When first you lay on my breast |
| You could make me believe with your lying tongue |
| That the sun rose in the west |
| Well, then go home to your father’s garden |
| Go home and weep your fill |
| And think on your own misfortune |
| That you’ve brought with your want and will |
