Green Man - Once I Loved a Lass | |
I once loved a lass and I loved her so well, | |
I hated all others who spoke of her ill, | |
But now she's rewarded me well for my love, | |
For she's gone to be wed to another. | |
I watched as my love did to the church go, | |
With bride and bride-maidens she made a fine show, | |
And I followed her on with a heart full of woe, | |
To see my love be wed to another | |
To see my love be wed to another | |
I watched as my love did sit down to dine, | |
I sat down beside her and poured out the wine, | |
And I drank to the wee lass that should have been mine, | |
For now she is wed to another. | |
Oh stop says the groomsman if you take my word | |
Would you venture your life on the point of a sword | |
For courting too slowly you have lost this fair maiden | |
Begone you will never enjoy her | |
Begone you will never enjoy her | |
The lads of yon forest, they ask it of me, | |
How many strawberries grow round the salt sea, | |
But I answer them back with a tear in my eye, | |
How many ships sail in the forest? | |
Oh, dig me a grave all large wide and deep, | |
And cover it over with wild flowers sweet, | |
And lay me down gently for to take a long sleep, | |
For that’s the best way to forget her. | |
So we dug him a grave all large wide and deep, | |
And covered it over with wild flowers sweet, | |
And we laid him down gently for to take his long sleep, | |
And maybe by now he's forgotten. |
