Lyrics The Lark in the Morning - Christy Moore
The
lark
in
the
morning
she
rises
off
her
nest
She
goes
off
in
the
air
with
the
dew
all
on
her
breast
And
like
the
jolly
ploughboy
she
whistles
and
she
sings
She
goes
off
in
the
air
with
the
dew
all
on
her
wings
Oh
Roger
the
ploughboy
he
is
a
dashing
blade
He
goes
whistling
and
singing
over
yonder
leafy
shade
He
met
with
dark
haired
Susan,
she's
handsome
I
declare
And
she
is
far
more
enticing
than
the
birds
up
in
the
Air
The
lark
in
the
morning...
One
evening
when
they're
coming
from
the
rakes
of
the
Town
The
meadows
bein'
all
mown
and
the
grass
had
been
cut
Down
As
she
should
chance
to
stumble
all
on
the
new
mown
hay
Oh
it's
kiss
me
now
or
never,
then
this
bonnie
lass
did
Say
The
lark
in
the
morning...
When
twenty
long
weeks,
they
were
over
and
were
past
Her
mammy
asked
the
reason
why
she
thickened
round
the
Waist
It
was
the
jolly
ploughboy,
this
bonnie
lass
did
say
He
caused
me
for
to
tumble
all
on
the
new
mown
hay
The
lark
in
the
morning...
Here's
a
health
to
you
ploughboys
wherever
you
may
be
That
like
to
have
a
bonnie
lass
a-sitting
on
each
knee
With
a
pint
of
good
strong
porter,
you'll
whistle
and
You'll
sing
And
the
ploughboy
is
as
happy
as
a
bird
upon
the
wing
The
lark
in
the
morning...
