Down By The Salley Gardens

Liedtext
Down by the sally gardens

My love and I did

Meet

She

Passed the sally

Gardens with little

Snow white feet

She bid me take love easy

As the leaves grow

On the tree

But

I being young and foolish

With her

Did not

Agree

In a field by the river

My love and I

Did stand

And on my leaning shoulder

She laid her snow white

Hand

She bid me take life easy

As the grass grows

On the weirs

But

I was young

And foolish

And now am full

Of tears
