Courting Is A Pleasure

(альбом: The Way Is Read - 2017)

Courting is a pleasure
Between my love and I
And it's down in yon green valley
I'll meet her by and by

It was down in yon green valley
She is my heart's delight
"Molly, lovely Molly
I will stay 'til broad daylight."

Never marry a fair young maid
With a dark and a roving eye
Just you kiss her and you embrace her
Never tell her the reason why

Just you kiss her and you embrace her
'Til you cause her heart to yield
For a faint-hearted soldier
Will never gain the field

Farewell, Ballymonie
Likewise the sweet Bann shore
Farewell unto McCusky braes
Will I never see more

America lies far away
That land I will go see
And may all bad luck attend the one
Who parted my love and me

Just you kiss her and you embrace her
Never tell her the reason why

Courting is a pleasure
Between my love and I
