[00:06.15] The trees they do grow high
[00:08.27] The leaves they do grow green
[00:10.43] Many's the time my love I have seen
[00:15.27] Many the hour, I watched him on the go
[00:18.68] He's young but he's daily growing
[00:29.10] Father, dear father
[00:30.91] You've done to me great wrong
[00:33.53] You've married me to a boy who is too young
[00:37.17]
[00:41.26] He's young but he's daily growing
[00:51.60] Daughter, dear daughter
[00:53.63] I've done to you no wrong
[00:56.08] I've married you to a rich man's son
[01:00.14] He'll make a Lord for you to wed to borne
[01:03.71] He's young but he's daily growing
[01:13.92] Oh father, dear father
[01:15.74] If in you besee-ee fit
[01:18.01] I'll send him to college for one year yet
[01:22.34] I'll tie blue ribbons all around his head
[01:26.03] To let the maidens know that he's married
[02:30.33] One day while I was walking
[02:32.01] On my father's castle wall
[02:34.60] I saw the boys they were playin' with the ball
[02:38.64] My own true love was the flower of them all
[02:42.20] He's young but he's daily growing
[02:52.29] At the age of fifteen
[02:54.24] He was a married man
[02:56.49] The age of sixteen, a father of a son
[03:00.50] The age of seventeen, the grass grew over him
[03:03.95] Grew that soon put an end to his growing
[03:14.01] The trees they do grow high
[03:16.09] The leaves they do grow green
[03:18.46] Many's the time my love I have seen
[03:22.65] Many the hour I watched him all alone
[03:26.02] He's young but he's daily growing
