Generate meaning
1
A blacksmith courted me, nine months or better
2
He bravely won my heart, wrote me a letter
3
With his hammer in his hand, he looked quite clever
4
And if I was with my love, I'd live forever
5
But where is my love gone, with his cheeks like roses
6
And his good black billycock on, all crowned with primroses
7
I'm afraid the scorching sun, will shine and burn his beauty
8
And if I was with my love, I'd do my duty
9
Strange news has come to town, strange news is carried
10
Strange news flies up and down, that my love he's married
11
I wish them both much joy though they can't hear me
12
And may God reward them well for the slighting of me
13
Don't you remember well, when you lay beside me
14
And you said you'd marry me and not deny me
15
If I said I'd marry you, it was only for to try you
16
But bring your witness love, and I'll not deny you
17
Oh witness have I none, save God almighty
18
And may he reward you well, for the slighting of me
19
Her lips grew pale and wan, it made her poor heart tremble
20
To think she loved a one and he proved deceitful
