burl ives - foggy, foggy dew lyrics
when i was a bachelor i lived all alone
i worked at the weaver’s trade
and the only, only thing that i did that was wrong
was to woo a fair young maid
i wooed her in the winter time
part of the summer too
and the only, only thing that i did that was wrong
was to keep her from the foggy, foggy dew
one night she knelt close by my side
when i was fast asleep
she threw her arms around my neck
and then began to weep
she wept, she cried, she tore her hair
ah, me, what could i do?
so all night long, i held her in my arms
just to keep her from the foggy, foggy dew
again i am a bachelor, i live with my son
we work at the weaver’s trade
and every single time that i look into his eyes
he reminds me of that fair young maid
he reminds me of the wintertime
part of the summer too
and of the many, many times that i held her in my arms
just to keep her from the foggy, foggy dew
