Byrds - John Riley Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Written by gibson/neff arranged by mcguinn/crosby
  • Fair young maid all in her garden
  • Strange young man came riding by
  • Saying: fair young maid, will you marry me?
  • This then, sir, was her reply
  • Oh no, kind sir, I cannot marry thee
  • For Ive a love who sails the deep salt sea
  • Though hes been gone these seven years
  • Still no man shall marry me
  • What if hes died all in some battle slain
  • Or if hes drowned in, in the deep salt sea?
  • What if hes found some other love
  • He and his new love both married be?
  • If hes found some other love
  • He and his new love both married be
  • I wish them health and happiness
  • Where they have love far across the sea
  • He picked her up all in his arms
  • And kisses gave her one, two and three
  • Then weep no more, my own true love
  • I am your long lost john riley
  • Saying: weep no more, my own true love
  • For Im your long lost john riley
