Down in the valley, valley so low Hang your head over, hear the wind blow Hear the wind blow, love, hear the wind blow Hang your head over, hear the wind blow Up on the mountain, mountain so high I get so lonely that I wish I could die I wish I could die, love, I wish I could die I get so lonely that I wish I could die If you don't love me, go court who you please First put your arms 'round me to give my heart ease For to give my heart ease, love, for to give my heart ease First put your arms round me for to give my heart ease Write me a letter containing three lines Tell me you love me, you'll forever be mine Forever be mine, love, forever be mine Tell me you love me, you'll forever be mine Goin' to build me a castle, forty feet high Set at my window and you go by I'll watch you go by, love, watch you go by I'll set at my window and watch you go by
