The Snows |
The snows they melt the soonest when the winds begin to sing |
And the corn it ripens faster when the frosts are settlin' in |
And when a woman tells me that my face she’ll soon forget |
Before we part I’ll wage a corn she’s fain to follow it yet |
For the snows they melt the soonest when the winds begin to sing |
And the swallow flies without a thought as long as it is spring |
But when spring goes and winter blows my love she will be fain |
For all her pride to follow me across the stormy main |
The snows they melt the soonest when the winds begin to sing |
And the bee that flew when summer shone in winter cannot sting |
And I’ve seen a woman’s anger melt between the nicht and morn |
So it’s surely not a harder thing to melt a woman’s scorn |
So dont' you bid me farewell now no farewell I’ll receive |
But you must lie with me my lass then kiss and take your leave |
And I’ll wait here till the woodcock calls and the martin takes the wing |
For the snows they melt the soonest when the winds begin to sing |
