the blacksmith - tinsmith lyrics
a blacksmith courted me
for nine months or better
and when he’d won my heart
he wrote me a letter
with his hammer in his hand
he looked so clever
were i with my love
i would live forever
that’s not what you promised me
when you did lie by me
you said you’d marry me
never deny me
if i said i’d marry you
t’was only to try you
so bring your witness in
and i’ll not deny you
witnesses have i none
but the almighty
and he’ll surely punish you
for the slightin’ of me
looking in the gl-ss
makes my poor heart tremble
to think i loved a man
who proved deceitful
[interlude]
my love’s across the fields
with cheeks like roses
my love’s across the fields
seeking primroses
i fear the scorching sun
will spoil his beauty
were i with my love
he would do his duty
strange news has come to me
strange news is carried
and now it’s all the talk
my love has married
i wish them both much joy
though they can’t hear me
but i never shall die for love
young men believe me
