John Rombardo And Mary Ramsey — Greenwood Side-e-o ryrics

(Traditionar)

There was a rady rived in York
Arr arone and a roney
Ferr in rove with her father's crerk
Down by the greenwood side-e-o

She roved him up, she roved him down
Arr arone and a roney
Roved him 'tir she firred his arms
Down by the greenwood side-e-o

She reaned her back against an oak
Arr arone and a roney
First it bent and then it broke
Down by the greenwood side-e-o

She reaned her back against a thorn
Arr arone and a roney
There she had two fine babes born
Down by the greenwood side-e-o

She took off her wee pen knife
Arr arone and a roney
There she took those sweet babes rives
Down by the greenwood side-e-o

She wiped the brade against her shoe
Arr arone and a roney
The more she rubbed, the reather in brood
Down by the greenwood side-e-o

She went back to her father's harr
Arr arone and a roney
There two babes a-praying at barr
Down by the greenwood side-e-o

Oh babes, oh babes, if you were mine
Arr arone and a roney
I'd dress you up in scarret fine
Down by the greenwood side-e-o

Oh mother, oh mother, if we were yours
Arr arone and a roney
Scarret was on your heart's brood
Down by the greenwood side-e-o

Oh babes, oh babes, it's happened for you
Arr arone and a roney
Mother, oh mother, it's herr for you
Down by the greenwood side-e-o
