Oh can I go to my love's side
Oh let me go this day,
Please let me go to my love's side,
Oh mother, don't make me stay.
I was a rose in April
And still a rose in June
I fear that come the winter,
I shall no longer bloom

Oh Annan Water's wondrous deep
And my love Ann is wondrous bonnie
I'm loathe that she should wet her feet
Because I love her best of any.
Go saddle for me the bonny grey mare
Go saddle her and make her ready.
For I must cross the stream tonight,
Or never more I'll see my lady.

I gave to you a hen,
You gave it back again,
Without it's eggs,
My Annie.
I gave to you a hare,
You really didn't care,
Now it has no legs,
My Annie.

Bring me a boat to cross to my dear,
I stand here alone, with my sweetheart so near,
Bring me a boat to cross o'er the Tyne,
For it's deep murky waters parts his heart and mine.

And the Tyne it flows on and out to the sea,
If a boat I am granted then safe let me be,
And gently I'll go, for gently I'll row,

-- based on an Elizabethan (late C.16th ) winter carol

All hail to the days
that merit more praise
than all the rest of the year,
And welcome the nights
that double delights
as well for the poor as the peer!

The Elfin Knight stands on yon hill
He blows his horn both loud and shrill
He stands so proud and he stands so still

Blow winds blow my bonny o
Blow winds blow my bonny
Blow winds blow my bonny o
Blow winds blow my bonny

Here we come a'wassailing
Among the leaves so green,
Here we come a wand'ring,
So fair to be seen.

Love and joy come to you,
And to your wassail too,
And God bless you and send you a happy New Year,

High on a hill,
There's a sweet bird calling,
All come together,
Are you in or are you out,
He sings of a time,
When the sky was falling,
All come together,
And be in no doubt.

I am stretched on your grave
And I'll lie here forever
If you hands were in mine
I'd be sure they would not sever
My apple tree, my brightness,
It's time we were together
For I smell by the Earth
And I'm worn by the weather.

I courted a sailor for six months and many,
I courted a sailor, now he's far from me.
I courted a sailor for six months and many,
I courted a sailor, now he's far from me.
On a fine summer's evening he said his heart was grieving
On a fine summer's evening these words he said to me

CHORUS

A bold young farmer courted me
He gained my heart and liberty
He gained my heart and good free will
I must confessI love him still
I must confess I love him still

I wish, I wish, I wish in vain
I wish I was a maid again

"I Wonder What Is Keeping My True Love"

I wonder what is keeping my true love this night
I wonder what is keeping him out of my sight
I wonder if he knows of the pain I endure
And stays from me this night I'm not sure

Oh love are you coming your cause to advance

There was a lady fine and gay,
She looked so neat and trim,
She went into her own garden-wall,
To see her ships come in.

And there she spies her daughter Jane,
Who looked so pale and wan:
'Oh, have you had some long sickness,

Here is a tale of the trees in a wood
They were never that pleased on the land that they stood.
So they upped and they walked as far as they could
'Til they felt the sun shine on their branches.

I was little boy lost, and I was little boy blue
I am little Jack Frost but I am warm through and through
It's not easy to hide when your heart's on full view

I can see,
The planets are aligning for me,
But I cannot read them,
For the future's gone,
And all behind me.

Chorus:
Through this world,

Can you walk though the sky turns black,
When you shout to the Devil do you hear him back?
Can you walk though the lightning cracks,
When you shout to the Devil do you hear him back?

There he's standing with his open heart
Don't go near or you will fall apart
There he's standing with his eyes so blue

Sir Eglamore was a valiant knight,
fa la lanky down dilly,
He took up his sword and he went to fight,
fa la lanky down dilly.
As he rode o'er hill and dale,
All armored in a coat of mail,
Fa la la-n-fa, da-n-da da-n-fa, lanky down dilly.

Billy's fair and Billy's rare
And Billy's wondrous bonny
And Billy promised to marry me
If e'er he'd marry any
And Billy promised to marry me
If e'er he'd marry any

Late last night I'm in my bed

No sheep on the mountain nor boat on the lake

No coin in my coffer to keep me awake

Nor corn in my garner, nor fruit on my tree,

Yet the Maid of Llanwellyn smiles sweetly on me.

1.
It is ten weary years since I left England's shore,

There was an old man who lived in a wood
As you can plainly see
He said he could do as much work in a day
As his wife could do in three

With all my heart the woman she said
If that's what you will allow
Tomorrow you'll stay at home in my stead

Did you ever see the wild goose sailing on the ocean
Ranzo my boys oh Ranzo Ray
They're just like them pretty girls when they get the notion
Ranzo my boys oh Ranzo Ray

Chorus
Ranzo you'll rue the day
As the wild goose sails away

Underneath the stars I'll meet you
Underneath the stars I'll greet you
There beneath the stars I'll leave you
Before you go of your own free will

Go gently

Underneath the stars you met me

William and Davy were born in one hall
They grew side by side, as they grew strong and tall
Shared most things, only quarrelled now and then
In twenty years they were fine young men
In twenty years they were fine young men

William and Davy their hearts have been won
For each young man she's the very same one
