[00:07.15]
[00:09.27] The trees they do grow high
[00:11.43] The leaves they do grow green
[00:16.27] Many's the time my love I have seen
[00:19.68] Many the hour, I watched him on the go
[00:30.10] He's young but he's daily growing
[00:31.91] Father, dear father
[00:34.53] You've done to me great wrong
[00:38.17] You've married me to a boy who is too young
[00:42.26]
[00:52.60] He's young but he's daily growing
[00:54.63] Daughter, dear daughter
[00:57.08] I've done to you no wrong
[01:01.14] I've married you to a rich man's son
[01:04.71] He'll make a Lord for you to wed to borne
[01:14.92] He's young but he's daily growing
[01:16.74] Oh father, dear father
[01:19.01] If in you besee-ee fit
[01:23.34] I'll send him to college for one year yet
[01:27.03] I'll tie blue ribbons all around his head
[02:31.33] To let the maidens know that he's married
[02:33.01] One day while I was walking
[02:35.60] On my father's castle wall
[02:39.64] I saw the boys they were playin' with the ball
[02:43.20] My own true love was the flower of them all
[02:53.29] He's young but he's daily growing
[02:55.24] At the age of fifteen
[02:57.49] He was a married man
[03:01.50] The age of sixteen, a father of a son
[03:04.95] The age of seventeen, the grass grew over him
[03:15.01] Grew that soon put an end to his growing
[03:17.09] The trees they do grow high
[03:19.46] The leaves they do grow green
[03:23.65] Many's the time my love I have seen
[03:27.02] Many the hour I watched him all alone
