As I went out on a bright morning

to take a pleasant walk.

I sat down beside an old stone wall

just to hear two lovers talk

For to hear two lovers talk, my love

To hear what thay might say.

So I might learn a little more, love

before I go away.

P stands for Paddy, I suppose.

J for my love John.

W stands for false William O

But Johnny is the fairest man.

"Johnny is the fairest man," she said

"Johnny is the fairest man.

I don't care what anybody says

for Johnny is the fairest man."

~Music~

Well come on sit beside me, love

Beside me on the green

It's a long three quarters of a year or more

Since together we have been

Since together we have been, my dear

Together we have been

It's a long three quarters of a year or more

since together we have been

Oh I'll not sit beside you, love

Now or any other time

For I hear you love another little lass

and your heart's no longer mine.

"And your heart's no longer mine" she said,

"Your heart's no longer mine.

I don't care what anybody says

Your heart's no longer mine."

~Music~

So I will climb a high, high tree,

And grab the wild Bird's nest.

Back I'll bring what I find there

To the girl I love the best

"To the girl I love the best," he said

"The girl I love best

Back I'll bring what I find there

To the girl I love the best."

P stands for Paddy, I suppose.

J for my love John.

W stands for false Willy O

But Johnny is the fairest man.

"Johnny is the fairest man," she said

"Johnny is the fairest man.

I don't care what anybody says

but Johnny is the fairest man."

~Music~

* Johnny's the one I love the best

He beside me on the green

I hear two lovers talk

I hear two lovers talk

And grab a wild Bird's nest

* For Johnny is the one i love the best

Woh~~~

I hear two lovers talk...

Before i go away

End
