I Wish 가사

A bold young farmer courted me He gained my heart and liberty He gained my heart and good free will I must confessI love him still I must confess I love him still I wish, I wish, I wish in vain I wish I was a maid again A maid again I ne'er shall be For that young farmer lay with me. There is a house in yonder town Where my love goes and sits him down He takes a strange girl on his knee He tells her things he won't tell me He tells her things he won't tell me Chorus There is a bird in yonder tree Some say he's blind and cannot see I wish it was the same with me When first I met your company When first I met your company Chorus I wish my little babe was born And I poor girl was dead and gone And then from love I will be free With green grass growing over me With green grass growing over me Chorus A bold young farmer courted me He gained my heart and liberty He gained my heart and good free will I must confess I love him still I must confess I love him still Chorus
