a. l. lloyd - the trees they do grow high كلمات الأغنية

the trees they do grow high and the leaves they are so green
the time is past and gone, my love, that you and i have seen
one cold winter’s night, my love, when you and i alone, had been
i spied a bonny boy, young but growing

“oh, mother, dearest mother, you’ve done me much wrong
you’ve tied me to a boy when you know he is too young
for his age is only twelve, and i am but thirteen
saying the bonny boy is young, but he’s growing.”

“we’ll send your love to college, oh, for a year or two
and maybe in thе meantime, he’ll comе to do for you
and we’ll buy him white ribbons to tie around his bonny waist
to let the ladies know that he’s married.”

she went up to the college and she looked all over the wall
saw four and twenty gentlemen there playing bat and ball
she called for her own love, but they wouldn’t let him go
they said the boy is young, but he’s growing

was on one summer’s morning at the dawning of the day
they went into some cornfield to have some sport and play
and what they did there, she never will declare
but she nevermore complained of his growing

well, at the age of twelve, he was a married man
and at the age of thirteen, he was father of a son
at the age of sixteen, there his grave was blowing green
cruel death had put an end to his growing
and now her love is dead and in his grave do lie
the green grass do grow over him so very, very high
and this young girl she can mourn him until the day she dies
‘a_watching over his child while he’s growing
