Down By The Sally Gardens lyrics

Down by the sally gardens my love and I did meet She passed the sally gardens with little snow-white feet She bid me to take love easy as the leaves grow on the trees But I being young and foolish with her would not agree In a field by the river my love and I did stand And on her leaning shoulder she laid her snow-white hand She bid me to take life easy as the grass grows on the weirs But I was young and foolish and now I am full of tears Down by the sally gardens my love and I did meet She passed the sally gardens with little snow-white feet She bid me to take love easy as the leaves grow on the trees But I being young and foolish with her would not agree
