[00:01.51]Songs Title：playing of ball
[00:03.88]It happened one evening at the playing of ball
[00:09.62]When first I met Willie, he was proper, he was tall
[00:14.49]He was neat, fair and handsome, straight in each limb
[00:20.11]There's a heart in my bosom and it's aching for him.
[00:26.04]Will you go along with me all down the road
[00:31.27]To see father's dwelling and the place of our abode
[00:36.63]He knew by her look and her languishing eye
[00:41.89]He was the young man she valued most high.
[00:52.55]There's a place in my garden, young Willie, said she
[00:57.60]Where Lords, Dukes and Earls, they wait upon me
[01:02.72]And when they are sleeping in their long, silent rest
[01:07.90]I'll go with you, Willie you're the boy I love best.
[01:39.91]Her father was listening, in ambush he lay
[01:45.02]He heard the words these lovers did say
[01:50.29]And with his sharp rapier he's pierced her love through
[01:55.47]And the innocent blood of her darling he drew.
[02:05.95]I will go off to some far country
[02:11.12]Where I'll know no one and no one knows me
[02:16.41]It's there I will wonder in my long silent rest
[02:21.53]For it's you, lovely Willie, you're the boy I love best.
[02:31.96]It happened one evening at the playing of ball
[02:37.01]When first I met Willie, he was proper and tall
[02:42.06]He was neat fair and handsome and straight in each limb
[02:47.44]There's a heart in my bosom and it's waiting for him.
[02:52.98]There's a heart in my bosom and it's waiting for him.
[02:57.97]There's a heart in my bosom and it's waiting for him.
[03:08.27]For him
[03:13.27]for him
[03:18.50]For him
