One April Morning Lyrics
One April Morning - Norma Waterson
It was on one April morning
Just as the sun was rising
It was one April morning
I heard the small birds sing
They were singing Lovely Nancy
For love it is a fancy
And sweet were the notes
That I heard the small birds sing
Young men are false
Young men they are deceitful
Young men are false
And seldom can prove true
With their rambling and their ranging
And their minds are always changing
And they're always looking out
For some other girl new
Oh if I had
But my own heart in keeping
Oh if I had
My own heart back again
Close in my bosom
I would lock it up forever
And it would wander never so far from me again
Why would you spend all your long time in courting
Why would you spend all your long time in vain
For I don't intend to marry
I'd rather longer tarry
So young men don't you spend all
Your long time in vain
Young men are false
Young men they are deceitful
Young men are false
And never can prove true
With their rambling and their ranging
And their minds are always changing
And they're always looking out for
Some other girl new
