John Riley

John Riley (約翰·萊利) - Joan Baez (瓊·貝茲)

Fair young maid all in a garden

Stange young man passerby

Said fair maid will you marry me

This then sir was her reply

Oh no kind sir I cannot marry thee

For I've a love who sails all on the sea

He's been gone for seven years

Still no man shall marry me

What if he's in some battle slain

Or drownded the deep salt sea

What if he's found another love

And he and his love both married be

If he's in some battle slain

I will go and mourn all his way

And if he's drowned in the deep salt sea

I'll be true to his memory

And if he's found another love

And he and his love both married be

I'll wish them health and happiness

Where they dwell across the sea

He picked her up all in his arms

Ans kisses gave her one two three

Said way no more my own true love

I am your long lost John Riley

Said way no more my own true love

I am your long lost John Riley
