๐ Lyrics
As I walked out on a bright May morning
To view the meadows and flowers gay
Whom should I spy, but my own dear lover
As she sat under young willow tree
I took off my hat and I did salute her
I did salute her most courageously
When she turned around and the tears fell from her
Saying, false young man, you've deluded me
A diamond ring you owned you gave you
A diamond ring to wear on my right hand
But the vows you made, love, you went and broke them
But married the lassie that had the land
If I'd married the lassie that had the land, my love
It's not time for us to for 'til the day I die
When misfortune falls sure no man can shun it
I was blindfolded, I'll ne'er deny
Now at nights when I go to my bed of slumber
My thoughts of my true love run in my mind
When I turned around to embrace my darling
Instead of gold, sure it's brass I find
And I wish the Queen would call home her army
From the West Indies, America and Spain
And every man to his wedded woman
In hopes that you and I will meet again
To view the meadows and flowers gay
Whom should I spy, but my own dear lover
As she sat under young willow tree
I took off my hat and I did salute her
I did salute her most courageously
When she turned around and the tears fell from her
Saying, false young man, you've deluded me
A diamond ring you owned you gave you
A diamond ring to wear on my right hand
But the vows you made, love, you went and broke them
But married the lassie that had the land
If I'd married the lassie that had the land, my love
It's not time for us to for 'til the day I die
When misfortune falls sure no man can shun it
I was blindfolded, I'll ne'er deny
Now at nights when I go to my bed of slumber
My thoughts of my true love run in my mind
When I turned around to embrace my darling
Instead of gold, sure it's brass I find
And I wish the Queen would call home her army
From the West Indies, America and Spain
And every man to his wedded woman
In hopes that you and I will meet again
