Here’s a health to all true lovers
Here’s a health to mine, wherever she may be
This very night I will go and see her
Although she is many a long mile from me
Let the night be dark as the very dungeon
Let not a star shine from above
I will be guided, o safely guided
Into the arms of my own true love
He then approached her bedroom window
His knee he placed on a cold damp stone
Through the pane of glass he gently whispered
My darling maid, do you sleep alone?
She raised her head from her soft white pillow
Her hand she placed on her sleep-warmed breast
Through the pane of glass she gently whispered
Who is this who disturbs my quiet night’s rest?
It’s only I, your darling lover
Open the door, love, and let me in
For I am tired from my long night’s journey
And besides, I am drenched to the very skin
She opened the door with the greatest pleasure
She opened the door and he walked in
They both embraced and they kissed each other
Til the dawning of the day it came creeping in
The cocks are crowing love I must be going
The cocks are crowing love I must away
The cocks are crowing love I must be going
For we are both servants and we must obey

The Wedding Dress Song

Oh, my little Dony gal
Don't you guess
You'd better be making your wedding dress
Wedding dress, wedding dress
Better be making your wedding dress
Hey, it's already made
Trimmed in red
Stitched around with a golden thread
Golden thread, golden thread
Stitched around with a golden thread
Hey, it's already made
Trimmed in brown
Stitched around with a golden crown
Golden crown, golden crown
Stitched around with a golden crown
Hey, it's already made
Trimmed in green
Prettiest dress you've ever seen
Ever seen, ever seen
Prettiest dress you've ever seen
Hey, it's already made
Trimmed in white
I'm gonna be married on Saturday night
Saturday night, Saturday night
I'm gonna be married on Saturday night
Hey, she wouldn't say yes,
wouldn't say no
All she'd do is just sit and sew
Sit and sew, sit and sew
All she'd do is just sit and sew

Morning come and Maria's gone
Morning come and Maria's gone
Morning come and Maria's gone
And it's early in the morning
Oh she's gone and I can't go
Oh she's gone and I can't go
Oh she's gone and I can't go
And it's early in the morning
Morning come and Maria's gone
Morning come and Maria's gone
Morning come and Maria's gone
And it's early in the morning
Never could I know her mind
Never could I know her mind
Never could I know her mind
And it's early in the morning
Morning come and Maria's gone
Morning come and Maria's gone
Morning come and Maria's gone
And it's early in the morning
Trouble, trouble, is my name
Trouble, trouble, is my name
Trouble, trouble, is my name
And it's early in the morning
Morning come and Maria's gone
Morning come and Maria's gone
Morning come and Maria's gone
And it's early in the morning
