As I walked out one evening
Down by a shady grove
I heard a maid lamenting
Lamenting for her love
He is cruel and hard hearted
He is cruel and hard hearted
Even though now hes false to me
I wish the day had never come
But he came following me
Go down to your fathers garden
Sit down and cry your pain
When you gave your heart away
It falls with your good will
As I walked out one evening
Down by a shady grove
I heard a maid lamenting
Lamenting for her love
Down by a shady grove
I heard a maid lamenting
Lamenting for her love
He is cruel and hard hearted
He is cruel and hard hearted
Even though now hes false to me
I wish the day had never come
But he came following me
Go down to your fathers garden
Sit down and cry your pain
When you gave your heart away
It falls with your good will
As I walked out one evening
Down by a shady grove
I heard a maid lamenting
Lamenting for her love
