• Luke Kelly - 03 - When I Was A Bachelor ( The Foggy Dew )

When I was a bachelor, airy and young
I followed the rovin' trade
And the only harm that ever I've done
Was courting a servant maid
I courted her in the summer long
And part of the winter too
But many's the time I rolled my love
All over the foggy dew, dew, dew
All over the foggy dew

One night as I lay in my bed
A-taking my pleasant sleep
This pretty young maid she came to me
And bitterly she did weep
She tore her hair and she rung her hands
Saying oh what shall I do?
For tonight I've resolved to sleep with you
For fear of the foggy dew, dew, dew
For fear of the foggy dew

All in the first part of that night
We rolled in sport and play
And in the latter part of that night
She in my arms did lay
And when broad daylight did appear
She cried, I am undone
Ah hold your tongue, you silly young girl
For the foggy dew is gone, gone, gone
For the foggy dew is gone

Supposing you should have a child
It would make you laugh and smile
And suppose you had another one
It would make you think awhile
And suppose you had another one
And another one or two
It would make you leave off them foolish young tricks
And think on the foggy dew, dew, dew
And think on the foggy dew

I love that girl with all my heart
She's as dear as my lovely life
But in the latter part of the year
She became another man's wife
But I've never told him of her faults
And I'm damned if ever I'll do
But many's the time as she winks and smiles
I think on the foggy dew, dew, dew
I think on the foggy dew
