Fiddler's Green - As I Roved Out lyrics

And who are you me pretty fair maid And who are you me honey She answered to me quite modestly: I am me mother's darling With me tooryay, fol de diddle day Dire fol de diddle dairie oh And will you come to me mother's house When the moon is shining clearly I'll open the door and I'll let you in And devil the one would hear us With me tooryay, fol de diddle day Dire fol de diddle dairie oh So I went to her house in the middle of the night When the moon was shining clearly She opened the door and she let me in And devil the one did hear us With me tooryay, fol de diddle day Dire fol de diddle dairie oh Then she took me by the lily-white band And she led me to the table Saying: "There's plenty of wine for a soldier boy To drink it if you're able" With me tooryay, fol de diddle day Dire fol de diddle dairie oh Then I got up and I made the bed And I made it nice and aisy Then I got up and I laid her down Saying "La**ie, are you able?" With me tooryay, fol de diddle day Dire fol de diddle dairie oh And there we lay till the break of day And devil the one did hear us Then I arose and put on my clothes Saying "La**ie, I must leave you" With me tooryay, fol de diddle day Dire fol de diddle dairie oh And when will ye return again And when will we get married When broken shells make christmas bells We might well get married With me tooryay, fol de diddle day Dire fol de diddle dairie oh
