Wild Wood Amber |
| O, the first time we met |
| Was in the wild wood |
| And the pinks and wild roses |
| All around us they stood |
| And you pulled off your apron |
| Sheltered me from all wind |
| Lovely Johnny, o lovely Johnny |
| What has altered your mind? |
| And o, the color of amber is my love’s hair |
| And his two blue eyes, they enticèd me |
| And his ruby lips, they being soft and fine |
| For many’s the time they were pressed to mine |
| Oh I’ll go a-fishing in yonder’s brook |
| And I’ll catch my love with a line and a hook |
| And if he loves me as I love him |
| No man on earth can part us two |
| Lovely Johnny, lovely Johnny |
| Do you remember the time |
| When you promised you’d marry me |
| Above all womankind? |
| You pulled off your apron |
| Sheltered me from all wind |
| Lovely Johnny, lovely Johnny |
| What has altered your mind? |
| O, I wish, I wish, but it’s all in vain |
| And I wish to God I’s a maiden again |
| But a maiden again I will never more be |
| 'Til apples grow on an orange tree |
| For as apples is ripe, but they soon get rotten |
| A young man’s heart it soon grows cold |
| What care I for the world of pleasure? |
| All I wants is an honest young man |
| Lovely Johnny, lovely Johnny |
| What has altered your mind? |
| When you promised you’d marry me |
| Above all womankind |
| And you pulled off your apron |
| Sheltered me from all wind |
| Lovely Johnny, lovely Johnny |
| What has altered your mind? |
