As I Roved Out Lyrics by Lisa O’Neill

Vision & Revision: The First 80 Years of Topic Records

0

[Verse 1]
As I roved out on a bright May morning
To the view the [?]
Whom should I spy but my own true love
As she sat under yon willow tree
I took off my hat and I did salute her
I did salute her most courageously
Then she turned around, well the tears fell from her
Saying "false young man, you have deluded me"
[Verse 2]
"A diamond ring, I own, I gave to you
A diamond ring to wear on your right hand
But the vows you made, love, you went and you broke them
When you married the lassie that had the land"
"If I married the lassie that had the land, my love
It is that I rue until the day I die
When misfortune falls [?]
I was blindfolded, I ne'er denied
[Verse 3]
And at night when I go to my bed of slumber
The touch of my true love runs in my mind
When I turn around to embrace my darling
Instead of gold [?] tis brass I find
And I wish the Queen would call home her armies
From the West Indies, America and Spain
And to every man, and his wedded woman
In the hopes that you and I will meet again
