I wish my love was a red, red rose |
| [00:29.00] |
growing in yon garden fair |
| [00:34.00] |
And I to be the gardener |
| [00:38.50] |
of her I would take care |
| [00:44.50] |
There's not a month throughout the year |
| [00:50.00] |
but my love I'd renew |
| [00:55.00] |
I'd garnish her with flowers fine |
| [01:01.00] |
sweet William, Thyme and Rue |
| [01:06.00] |
|
| [01:13.00] |
I wish I was a butterfly |
| [01:17.00] |
I'd light on my love's breast |
| [01:22.00] |
And if I was a blue cuckoo |
| [01:27.50] |
I'd sing my love to rest |
| [01:34.00] |
And if I was a nightingale |
| [01:38.50] |
I'd sing to daylight clear |
| [01:43.50] |
I'd sit and sing with you, Molly |
| [01:49.00] |
for once I loved you dear |
| [01:55.00] |
|
| [02:38.00] |
I wish I was in Dublin town, |
| [02:43.00] |
and seated on the grass |
| [02:49.00] |
In my right hand, a jug of punch, and on my knee, a lass |
| [02:59.00] |
I'd call for liquor freely and I'd pay before I'd go |
| [03:08.50] |
I'd roll my Molly in my arms, let the wind blow high or low |
