Died for Love

Lyrics

a bald young farmer courted me
 he gained my heart my liberty
 he gained my heart with a free good will
 and i must confess that i love him still
 i wish i wish but its all in vain
 i wish i was a maid again
 but a maid again that never can be
 since that young farmer lay still with me
 i wish my baby little was born and smilin on his fathers knee
 and i was dead and in my grave
 with the green grass growin all over me
 ♪
 there's a bird that sits in yonders tree
 some say hes blind and cannot sing
 oh i wish it being the same with me
 when first i met with your company
 ♪
 but a marble stone at my head and feet
 but a turtle white dove
 to let the world know that i died for love
