5. Banks Of Claudy
As I walked out one morning
All in the month of May
...
I overheard a young maid
In sorrow did complain.
...
I boldly steped up to her
And put her isn surprise.
I know she did not know me
I being in disguise.
...
"I'm in search of a faithless young man
Johnny is his name.
And along the Banks of Claudy
I'm told he does remain."
...
"Oh don't depend on Johnny
For he'll not meet you here.
But tarry with me in yon green woods
No danger need you fear.
...
He's crossing the wild ocean
For honour and for fame
But this l've heard the ship was wrecked
All on the coast of Spain."
...
He's crossing the wild ocean
For honour and for fame
But this l've heard the ship was wrecked
All on the coast of Spain."
...
Saying "If Johnny he is drowned
No man on Earth l'll take
But through lonesome groves and valleys
L'll wander for his sake."
...
"Saying Betsy l'm the young man
The cause of all your pain
And since we've met on Claudy banks
We'll never part again." |
