paroles de chanson A Blacksmith Courted Me - Andy Irvine



A Blacksmith courted me nine months and better
He fairly won my heart wrote me a letter
With his hammer in his hand he looked so clever
And if I was with my love I'd live forever
But where is my love gone with his cheeks like roses
And his good black billycock on decked around with primroses
I'm afraid the scorching sun will shine and burn his beauty
And if I was with my love I'd do my duty
Strange news is come to town strange news is carried
Strange news flies up and down that my love is married
I wish them both much joy though they can't hear me
And may God reward him well for slighting of me
Don't you remember when you lay beside me
And you said you'd marry me and not deny me
If I said I'd marry you it was only for to try you
So bring your witness love and I'll not deny you
O witness have I none save God almighty
And may he reward you well for the slighting of me
Her lips grew pale and wan it made her poor heart to tremble
To think she loved a one and he proved deceitful
