One Spring Morning by Akron-family
One Spring Morning lyrics
It was one morning in the spring
I went on board to serve the king,
I left my dearest dear behind,
Who often times told me her heart was mine.
When I came back to her father�s hall
Inquiring for my jewel
Her cruel father, this reply
Her momma says if you deny
She has married another man
A richer man for all his life
A richer man for all his life
And he has made her his lawful wife
O� God curse gold and silver too
And all false women who won�t prove true
For some will take
And then will break
All for the sake of richery
O� stop young man
Don�t talk too fast
The fault is great
But none of mine
The fault is great
But none of mine
Don�t speak so hard
Of the female kind
If I had gold
You might have part
As I have none
You�ve gained my heart
You�ve gained it all
With free good will
So keep my vows
And hold them still
Since hard fortune
Around me frowns
I�ll sail this ocean
Round and round
I�ll sail this ocean
Until I die
I�ll quit my ways
On the mountain high
