Come all ye fair and tender ladies
Take warning how you court your man
They're like a star on a cloudy morning
First they'll appear and then they're gone

They'll tell to you some loving story
They'll swear to you that their love is true
Straight away they're gone and they'll court another
That's the love they have for you

Oh don't you remember our days of courting
You told me then that you loved me best
You could make me believe by the fall of your arms
That the sun rose in the west

I wish I was some little sparrow
And I had wings and I could fly
Oh I'd fly right back to my false true lover
And while he's talking I'd be gone

But I am not some little sparrow
And I've no wings and I cannot fly
So I'll stay right here in my grief and sorrow
And let my troubles pass me by
