Come all ye fair and tender ladies
Take warning how you court young men
They're like the stars on a summer's morning
First they'll appear and then they're gone
If I had known before I courted
I never would have courted none
I'd have locked my heart in a box of golden
And fastened it up with a silver pin
Oh don't you remember our days of courting
When your head lay upon my breast
You could make me believe
By the falling of your arms
That the sun rose in the West
Oh I am not a little swallow
I have no wings neither can I fly
I'll sit right down and weep in sorrow
And let my troubles pass me by
