Bluehorses

Who are you, me pretty fair maid
And who are you, me honey?
Who are you, me pretty fair maid
And who are you, me honey?
Answered me modestly,
" I am me mother's darling."

CHORUS
With a too-ry-ay
Fol-a-diddle-day
Too-re-an-diddle
Dai-rie oh.

And went to her mammy's house
When the moon was shining clearly.
And went to her mammy's house
When the moon was shining clearly.
She opened the door and she let me in
And neer the one did hear us.

CHORUS

Took me by the lily-white hand
And she led me to the table
Took me by the lily-white hand
And she led me to the table
"Plenty of wine for a soldier boy,
Now drink it if you're able."

CHORUS

She got up and made the bed
And made it nice and easy
She got up and made the bed
And made it nice and easy
Took me by the lily-white hand
Saying "I hope to god you're able!"

CHORUS

When can I return again
And when can we get married
When can I return again
And when can we get married
When broken shells make Christmas bells
Then we may well get married.

CHORUS
