paroles de chanson The Snow It Melts the Soonest - The Longest Johns

Oh the snow it melts the soonest when
The winds begin to sing
And the corn it ripens fastest when
The frost are setting in
And when a woman tells me that
My face she'll soon forget
Before we part i wager crown
She's fain to follow yet

Oh the snow it melts the soonest when
The winds begin to sing
And the swallow skims without a thought
As long as it is spring
But when spring goes and winter blows
My lass and you'll be fain
For all your pride to follow me
Were ta cross the stormy main

Oh the snow it melts the soonest when
The winds begin to sing
And the bee that flew when summer shined
In winter can not sting
I've seen a woman's anger melt
Betwixt the night and morn
Its surely not a harder thing
To tame a woman's scorn
(Ooooohhhh)

Oh never say me farewell dear
No farewell I'll receive
For you shall set me to the stile
And kiss and take your leave
But i'll wait here till the woodcock comes
And the matler takes his wing
Since the snow it melts the soonest lass
When the winds begin to sing
