cara dillon - p stands for paddy (lament for johnny) lyrics

as i went out on a bright morning
to take a pleasant walk
i sat down beside an old stone wall
just to hear two lovers talk
for to hear two lovers talk, my love
to hear what thay might say
so i might learn a little more, love
before i go away

chorus:
p stands for paddy, i suppose
j for my love john
w stands for false william o
but johnny is the fairest man
“johnny is the fairest man,” she said
“johnny is the fairest man
i don’t care what anybody says
for johnny is the fairest man.”
well come on sit beside me, love
beside me on the green
it’s a long three quarters of a year or more
since together we have been
since together we have been, my dear
together we have been
it’s a long three quarters of a year or more
since together we have been
oh i’ll not sit beside you, love
now or any other time
for i hear you love another little l-ss
and your heart’s no longer mine
“and your heart’s no longer mine” she said
“your heart’s no longer mine
i don’t cara what anybody says
your heart’s no longer mine.”
chorus
so i will climb a high, high tree
and rob the wild bird’s nest
back i’ll bring what i find there
to the girl i love the best
“to the girl i love the best,” he said
“the girl i love best
back i’ll bring what i find there
to the girl i love the best.”
chorus
