oh she'll take off the black dress and put on the green

for she is foresaken and only 19

fa la la la la la la la la fa la la la la la

for she is foresaken and only 19

oh he courted her and he kissed her and he made her heart warm

and then when he left her he laughed her to scorn

fa la la la la la la la la fa la la la la la

and then when he left her he laughed her to scorn

foresaken foresaken her heart is forlorn

but he is mistaken if he thinks she will mourn

fa la la la la la la la la fa la la la la la

but he is mistaken if he thinks she will mourn

for we'll build her a cabin on yon mountain high

where the wild birds can't find her nor hear her heart cry

fa la la la la la la la la fa la la la la la

where the wild birds can't find her nor hear her heart cry

take warning take warning young ladies pray do

for you are quite lucky that this is not you

fa la la la la la la la la fa la la la la la

for you are quite lucky that this is not you
