dew scented - condemnation lyrics
unknown
miscellaneous
clear away the morning dew
clear away the morning dew
as i walked out one morning fair,
to see what i could shoot’
i there espied a pretty fair maid
come a-tripping by the road.
cho: and sing, hail the dewy morning’
blow all the winds high-o.
clear away the morning dew,
how sweet the winds do blow.
we both jogged on together
’till we came to some pooks of hay.
she said’ “young man, there is a place,
where you and i can lay.
i put me arms around her waist
and i tried to throw her down.
she said “young man, the dewy gr-ss
will rumple my silk gown. ”
“but if you come to me father ‘s house
there you can lay me down.
you can take away me maidenhead,
likewise a thousand pounds.”
so i took her to her father’s house,
but there she locked me out.
she said’ “young man’ i’m a maid within,
and you’re a fool without! ”
so it’s if you come to a pretty maid,
a mile outside of town,
don’t you take no heed of the dewy gr-ss
or the rumpling of her gown.
recorded by ian robb, hang the piper (folk legacy)
he reports ” the bulk of the text and the tune coming from ‘this
singing island’, maccoll and seeger”
