Fair and Tender Ladies |
| Come all ye fair and tender ladies |
| Take warning how you board young men |
| They’re like a star on summer mornin' |
| They’ll thirst a fear and then they’re gone |
| They’ll tell to you some lovin' story |
| And they make you think that they love you well |
| Then away they’ll go and court some other |
| And leave you there in grief to dwell |
| I wish I was on some tall mountain |
| Where the ivy rocks are black as ink |
| I’d write a lettr to my lost true lover |
| Whose cheeks ar like the mornin' pink |
| For love is handsome, love is charming |
| And love is pretty while it’s new |
| But love grows cold as love grows old |
| And fades away like the mornin' dew |
| And fades away like the mornin' dew |
| And fades away like the mornin' dew |
