down by the salley gardens my love and I did meet she passed the salley gardens with little snow-white feet... she bid me take love easy, as the leaves grow on the tree but I being young and foolish, with her did not agree...
in a field by the river my love and I did stand and on my leaning shoulder she laid her snow-white hand... she bid me take life easy, as the grass grows on the weirs but I was young and foolish, and now am full of tears...
