GREEN VALLEY



Oh the first young man that came courting me

I'll make no doubt that he loved me

With his false heart and his lathering tongue

He was the first to entice me when I was young.



Oh the first six months his love proved kind

Until at last he changed his mind

Saying "My parents call and I must obey

So it's good-bye love, I am going away".



I will hold you fast, I'll not let you go

For you are mine by rights, you know

For feel those vows that you made to me

As the bright sun rose on Green Valley,



It was on this book love you made me swear

And those few lines you soon shall hear

That no other marriage was I ne'er to make

With no other man all for your sake



Now must I go bound while he goes free

Must I love a man that don't love me

And must I play the childish part

And love a man who has broke my heart.



I will sing one verse and I'll sing no more

Since the boy has gone that I adore

I will change my mind like the wavering wind

And depend no more on false mankind.
