lirik lagu gentle fair jenny – jean ritchie
[verse 1]
i married me a wife and took her home
gentle fair jenny, fair rosy marie
i ofttimes wished that i’d let her alone
as the dew flies over the green valley
[verse 2]
all in my kitchen she would not use
gentle fair jenny, fair rosy marie
for fear of spoiling her new cloth shoes
as the dew flies over the green valley
[verse 3]
first day at noon i come in from the plow
gentle fair jenny, fair rosy marie
“my dearest wife, is my dinner ready now?”
as the dew flies over the green valley
[verse 4]
“there’s a little piece of corn bread layin’ on the shelf”
gentle fair jenny, fair rosy marie
“if you want anymore you can cook it yourself”
as the dew flies over the green valley
[verse 5]
second day at noon i come in from the plow
gentle fair jenny, fair rosy marie
“my dearest wife, is my dinner ready now?”
as the dew flies over the green valley
[verse 6]
“get out of here, you dirty thief”
gentle fair jenny, fair rosy marie
“if you want any dinner you can cook it yourself”
as the dew flies over the green valley
[verse 7]
i got my knife and went out to the barn
gentle fair jenny, fair rosy marie
i cut me a hickory as long as my arm
as the dew flies over the green valley
[verse 8]
i took my limb and i went back
gentle fair jenny, fair rosy marie
around her back i made it crack
as the dew flies over the green valley
[verse 9]
“i’ll tell my father and all of my kin”
gentle fair jenny, fair rosy marie
“you whupped me with a hickory limb”
as the dew flies over the green valley
[verse 10]
“you can tell your father and all your kin”
gentle fair jenny, fair rosy marie
“i whupped you once and i’ll whup you again”
as the dew flies over the green valley
