Early One Morning
(English, Traditional)
Early one morning,
Just as the sun was rising,
I heard a maid sing,
In the valley below.
Chorus:
Oh, don't deceive me,
Oh, never leave me,
How could you use
A poor maiden so?
Remember the vows,
That you made to your Mary,
Remember the bower,
Where you vowed to be true,
chorus:
Thus sang the poor maiden,
Her sorrows bewailing,
Thus sang the poor maid,
In the valley below.
chorus: (slowly)
