Sheepcrook and Black Dog

Here’s my sheepcrook and my black dog
I give it to you
Here’s my bag and budget
I bid it adieu
Here’s my sheepcrook and my black dog
I leave them behind
Fine Flora, my love
Has proved all unkind
All to my dear Flora these words I did say
Tomorrow we’ll be married love, tomorrow is the day
I know my dear William my age is too young
One day to our wedding is one day too soon
For I’ll go into service if the day ain’t too late
To wait on a fine lady it is my intent
And when into service a year or two bound
It’s then we’ll get married and both settle down
A little time after, a letter was wrote
For to see if my dear Flora had changed her mind
But she wrote that she’d lived such a contrary life
She said that she’d never be a young shepherd’s wife
Here’s my sheepcrook and my black dog
I give it to you
Here’s my bag and budget
I bid it adieu
Here’s my sheepcrook and my black dog
I leave them behind
Fine Flora, my love
Has proved all unkind
