rosemary fair - frank harte lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
you may go down to rosemary fair
every rose grows merry and fine
and pick me out then the finest boy there
and i will make him a true lover of mine

[verse 2]
tell him to find me an acre of land
every rose grows merry and fine
between the salt sea and the salt sea strand
or he cannot be a true lover of mine

[verse 3]
tell him to plough it with a ram’s h*rn
every rose grows merry and fine
and sow it all over with one grain of corn
or he cannot be a true lover of mine

[verse 4]
and tell him to reap it with a c*ck’s feather
every rose grows merry and fine
and bind it all round with strappings of leather
and i will make him a true lover of mine

[verse 5]
and tell him to draw it home on a snail
every rose grows merry and fine
and thresh it all out with a mouse’s tail
and i will make him a true lover of mine
[verse 6]
tell him to bring it to rosemary faire
every rose grows merry and fine
and when he arrives there’ll be n0body there
and he cannot be a true lover of mine

[verse 7]
since you have been so hard upon me
every rose grows merry and fine
i’m going to be as hard upon thee
if you wish to be a true lover of mine

[verse 8]
you may go down to rosemary faire
every rose grows merry and fine
and pick me out then the nicest girl there
and i will make her a true lover of mine

[verse 9]
tell her to send me a [?] shirt
every rose grows merry and fine
made without needle or needlework
or she cannot be a true lover of mine

[verse 10]
tell her to wash it in yonder well
every rose grows merry and fine
where water ne’er rose and rain never fall
and i will make here a true lover of mine
[verse 11]
tell her to dry it on yonder th*rn
every rose grows merry and fine
where none ever grew since adam was born
and i will make her a true lover of mine
