Lyrics

[00:08.210] Down by the Salley Gardens
[00:13.890] My love and I did meet.
[00:20.370] She passed the Salley Gardens
[00:26.170] With little snow white feet.
[00:33.040] She bid me take life easy
[00:39.180] As the leaves grow on the trees.
[00:46.110] But I being young and foolish,
[00:51.660] With her I did not agree.
[00:57.960] In a field by the river
[01:04.320] My love and I did stand.
[01:10.800] And on my healing shoulder
[01:17.010] she placed her snow white hand
[01:23.730] She bid me take love easy
[01:30.090] As the grass grows on the weeds.
[01:36.970] But I was young and foolish
[01:42.620] And now I'm full of tears.
[01:50.690]
[02:38.260] Down by the Salley Gardens
[02:44.700] My love and I did meet.
[02:51.080] She passed the Salley Gardens
[02:57.440] With little snow white feet.
[03:04.640] She bid me take love easy
[03:11.000] As the leaves grow on the trees,
[03:17.920] But I was young and foolish
[03:24.160] And now I'm full of tears.
