The Bold Grenadier

Lyrics

As I was a walking one morning in May
 I spied a young couple a makin' of hay.
 O one was a fair maid and her beauty shone clear
 And the other was a soldier, a bold grenadier.
 Good morning, good morning, good morning said he
 O where are you going my pretty lady?
 I am going a walking by the clear crystal stream
 To see cool water glide and hear nightingales sing.
 O soldier, o soldier, will you marry me?
 O no, my sweet lady that never can be.
 For I have a wife in my own country
 Two wives and the army's too many for me.
