Blacksmith |
| A blacksmith courted me nine months or better |
| He fairly won my heart, wrote me a letter |
| With his hammer in his hand he looked so clever |
| And if I were with my love I would live forever |
| Oh where has my love gone with his cheeks like roses |
| He is gone across the sea gathering primroses |
| I’m afraid the shining sun might burn and scorch his beauty |
| And if I were with my love I would do my duty |
| Strange news is a-come to town, strange news is carried |
| Strange news flies up and down that my love is married |
| Oh I wish them both great joy, though they don’t hear me |
| And if I were with my love I would do my duty |
| What did you promise me when you lay beside me |
| You said you’d marry me and not deny me |
| If I said I’d marry you twas only to try you |
| So bring your witness love and I’ll not deny you |
