Till the Water's All Long Gone |
| They came down from the mountain |
| They strained too long from the fountain |
| And all the while, all the while they longed for us But I won’t betray you, I won’t betray you |
| I won’t betray, I won’t |
| No, I won’t betray you, I won’t betray you |
| I won’t betray, I won’t |
| Till the water’s all long gone |
| And you, my sweet flower |
| And how you grew more sweet by the hour |
| And loath was I, loath was I to lose you |
| My tender rose, my limber rose |
| my slender rolling darling |
| My tender rose, my slender rose |
| My limber rolling darling |
| But the darling’s long, long gone |
| They came down from the mountain |
| They strained too long from the fountain |
| Oh my girl, oh my love, I’ve lost you |
| But I won’t betray you, I won’t betray you |
| I won’t betray, I won’t |
| No, I won’t betray you, I won’t betray you |
| I won’t betray, I won’t |
| Till the water’s all long gone |
