All Around My Hat

Lesley Garrett
Album : A North Country Lass
All around my hat
I will wear the green willow
All around my hat
For a twelvemonth and a day
And if anyone should ask me
The reason why I'm wearing it
It's all for my true love
Who is far far away
Fare thee well cold winter
And fare thee well cold frost
Nothing have I gained
But my own true love I've lost
I'll sing and I'll be merry
When occasion I do see
He's a false deluding young man
Let him go farewell he
The other night he brought me
A fine diamond ring but he
Thought to have deprive me
Of a far better thing
But I being careful
Like lovers ought to be
He's a false deluding young man
Let him go farewell he
With a quarter pound of reason
And a half a pound of sense
A small spring of time
And as much of prudence
You mix them all together
And you will plainly see
He's a false deluding young man
Let him go farewell he and
