lyrics

One evening fair, for to take the air
Down by blackwaterside
In gazing all around me
'Twas the Irish lad I spied

And through the first part of the night
We lay in sport and play
'Til this young man arose and gathered his clothes
And said, Fare you well today

That's not the promise that you gave to me
When first you laid on my breast
You could make me believe with your lying tongue
That the sun rose in the west

Go home, go home to your father's garden
Go home and weep your fill
And think on your own misfortune
That you got with your wanton will

There's not a girl in this whole wide world
As easily led as I
When fishes fly and the seas run dry
It's then you'll marry I
