All Around My Hat

All around my hat I will wear the green willow
 And all around my hat for a twelve month and a day
 And if anyone should ask me the reason why I'm wearing it
 It's all for my true love who's far, far away
 Fare thee well cold winter and fare thee well cold frost
 Nothing have I gained but my own true love I've lost
 I'll sing and I'll be merry when occasion I do see
 He's a false deluding young man, let him go, farewell he
 The other night he brought me a fine diamond ring
 But he thought to have deprived me of a far better thing
 But I being careful like lovers ought to be
 He's a false deluding young man, let him go, farewell he and
 All around my hat I will wear the green willow
 And all around my hat for a twelve month and a day
 And if anyone should ask me the reason why I'm wearing it
 It's all for my true love who's far, far away
 It's a quarter pound of reasons and a half a pound of sense
 A small sprig of time and as much of prudence
 You mix them all together and you will plainly see
 He's a false deluding young man, let him go, farewell he and
 All around my hat I will wear the green willow
 And all around my hat for a twelve month and a day
 And if anyone should ask me the reason why I'm wearing it
 It's all for my true love who's far, far away
 All around my hat I will wear the green willow
 And all around my hat for a twelve month and a day
 And if anyone should ask me the reason why I'm wearing it
 It's all for my true love who's far, far away
 All around my hat I will wear the green willow
 And all around my hat for a twelve month and a day
 And if anyone should ask me the reason why I'm wearing it
 It's all for my true love who's far, far away
