One Morning In June

lyrics

one morning in june as i chanced to ramblin'
i met a cailín a fair one was she
she was so handsome i fell wild in love with her
wounded to death for she smiled charmingly

asked her her name and what happy fate was it
turned your steps this way my bright love so fair
my heart it will break if you don't come along with me
goodbye forever to sorrow and care

"i am a young girl from the coast far meandering
honestly reared though of no high degree
i being so airy for such was my nature
it made me own parents and me disagree"

says i my a stóirín if you listen to me a while
i'll tell you a story that's pleasant to see
that i'm a young man who is totally in love with you
surely my heart is from roguery free

"oh go you bold rogue you be wanting to flatter me
a bird in the hand is worth two in the tree
and i've neither wheat nor potatoes nor anything
nor blankets to keep off cold nights that will be"

well never mind that i'll buy tea and a dress for you
good english cotton the best in the fair
so powder your hair love and come away along with me
goodbye forever to sorrow and care

there's an alehouse nearby we'll take our delight in
if you're satisfied love and i promise you'll be
earlier next morning we'll send for the clergyman
who'll bind us as tight as the bark to the treat

we will stay drinkin' as long as the money lasts
take the road homeward with hearts light as air
when the reck'ning is paid sure who cares for the landlady
goodbye forever to sorrow and care
