Pretty Fair Damsel |
Pretty, fair damsel in the garden |
Brave, young soldier riding by |
He rode up to her to view her |
My pretty, fair miss, won’t you fancy me? |
You’re not a man of a noble honor |
You’re not the man I had taken you to be |
Or you wouldn’t impose on a single lady |
Who your bride can never be |
I have a true love in the army |
And he’s been there for seven long years |
And if he stays there seven years longer |
No other man can marry me |
Perhaps he’s on some water course drowned |
Perhaps he’s on some battlefield slain |
Perhaps he’s to some fair girl married |
My pretty, fair miss, you’ll never see him again |
Well, if he’s drowned, I hope he’s happy |
Or if he’s on some battlefield slain |
Or if he’s to some fair girl married |
I love the girl that married him |
