| [00:07.83] | Trees, they grow high and the leaves they do grow green |
| [00:13.78] | Many is the time my true love I've seen |
| [00:18.78] | Many an hour I have watched him all alone |
| [00:23.13] | He's young but he's daily growing |
| [00:34.84] | Father, dear, father you've done me great wrong |
| [00:39.78] | You've married me to a boy who is too young |
| [00:45.29] | I'm twice twelve and he is but fourteen |
| [00:49.81] | He's young but he's daily growing |
| [01:01.58] | Daughter, dear daughter, I've done you no wrong |
| [01:06.72] | I have married you to a great lord's son |
| [01:11.76] | He'll make a lord for you to wait upon |
| [01:16.25] | He's young but he's daily growing |
| [01:27.92] | Father, dear father, if you see fit |
| [01:32.47] | We'll send him to college for one year yet |
| [01:37.41] | I'll tie blue ribbons all around his head |
| [01:42.95] | To let the maidens know that he's married |
| [01:56.27] | One day, I was looking o'er my father's castle wall |
| [02:01.43] | I spied all the boys a-playing with the ball |
| [02:06.57] | My own true love was the flower of them all |
| [02:11.85] | He's young but he's daily growing |
| [02:21.48] | At the age of fourteen, he was a married man |
| [02:27.27] | At the age of fifteen, the father of a son |
| [02:32.59] | At the age of sixteen, his grave it was green |
| [02:39.98] | And death had put an end to his growing |
