the beers family - the maid on the little san croix lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
“oh, molly, oh, molly, come tarry with me
your favor i fairly would know
come sit on the brink of the green grassy brow
and gaze on the wonders below
and gaze on the wonders below”

[verse 2]
well, they strolled ’til they came to a peaceful land
and sat by the water flow
’twas there that he questioned the leave of her hand
on the bank of the little san croix
on the bank of the little san croix

[verse 3]
in fateful phrases her words they befell
in tone so soft and low
“oh, i cannot marry, the truth i must tell
to another i’ve given my vow
to another i’ve given my vow”

[verse 4]
oh, many a blossom has withered and died
or vanity’s sake to be stole
but none was so fair as the one that was sh+rn
from the bank of the little san croix
from the bank of the little san croix
[verse 5]
her put her dear body upon a green bow
a sorrowful sight for to see
and he lowered her down to the waters below
and sailed her off to the sea
and sailed her off to the sea

[verse 6]
and every fond lover that saw her drift by
has flowers for out on the tide
’til they gathered her up and they twined all about
in a bower so soft and wide
in a bower so soft and wide

[verse 7]
oh, many a valley this maiden did find
many a river did see
and many a lover did weep on the side
as she sailed to the arms of the sea
as she sailed to the arms of the sea
