Paroles de As I Roved Out

As I roved out on a May morning On a May morning right early I met my love upon the way Oh Lord but she was early. Her boots were black, her stockings white Her buckles shone like silver She had a dark and rovin' eye And her earrings touched her shoulders. What age are you, my bonnie wee lass? What age are you, my honey? Modestly she answered me "I'll be seventeen on Sunday" She sang A lith a dlddle, lith a diddle lith a dlddle dee Cha hiddle hundiddy, cha hiddle hundkddy And cha lan day. Where do you live, my bonnie wee lass? Where do you live, my honey? "A wee house up at the top of the hill I live there with my mommy" So I went to the house at the top of the hill The moon was shining clearly She arose to let me in Her mother chanced to meet me. She caught her by the hair of the head And down to the room she brought her With the root of a hazel twig She was the well beat daughter. Will you marry me now you soldier lad? Will you marry me now or never? Will you marry me you sildier lad? Can't you see I'm done forever? I can't marry you now my bonnie wee lass Can't marry you my honey For I have got a wife at home And how can I disown her A pint at night is my delight And a gallon in the morning The old women are my heartbreak And the young ones are my darlin's. She sang A lith a dlddle, lith a diddle lith a dlddle dee Cha hiddle hundiddy, cha hiddle hundkddy And cha lan day.
