John Riley (Remastered)
Fair young maid all in a garden Stange young man, passerby He said, 'Fair maid, will you marry me?' This then, sir, was her reply:
Oh, no, kind sir, I cannot marry thee For I've a love who sails all on the sea. He's been gone for seven years Still no man shall marry me
What if he's in some battle slain Or drownded (sic) in the deep salt sea What if he's found another love And he and his love both married be?
Well, if he's in some battle slain Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com I will go and mourn all on his grave And if he's drowned in the deep salt sea I'll be true to his memory
And if he's found another love And he and his love both married be I'll wish them health and happiness Where they dwell across the sea
He picked her up all in his arms Kisses gave her: One, two, three Said, Here am I, my own true love I am your long-lost John Riley!
