Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
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
