the maid of fife-e-o - the clancy brothers & tommy makem lyrics
there once was a troop of irish dragoons
come marching down through fife*e*o
and the captain fell in love with a very bonny lass
and her name it was called pretty peggy*o
there’s many a bonny lass in the town of augherlass
there’s many a bonny lassie in the jeery*o
there’s many a bonny jean in the streets of aberdeen
but the flower of them all is in fife*e*o
“oh, come down the stairs pretty peggy my dear
oh, come down the stairs pretty peggy*o
oh, comе down the stairs, comb back your yellow hair
bid a long farewеll to your mammy*o”
“oh, i’ll give you ribbons love and i’ll give you gold
i’ll give you a necklace of amber*o
and i’ll give you petticoats wi’ flounces to your knees
if you will convey me to your chamber*o”
the colonel he cried “mount, mount boys mount”
the captain he cried “tarry*o
oh tarry for a while, for another day or twa’
’till i see if this bonny lass will marry*o”
“i never did intend a soldier’s lady for to be
i never will marry a soldier*o
i never did intend to gang to a foreign land
and i never will marry a soldier*o”
long ‘ere we came to the town of augerlass
we had our captain to carry*o
and long ‘ere we reached the streets of aberdeen
we had our captain to bury*o
green grow the birks on bonny eithan side
and low lie the lowlands of fife*e*o
oh, the captain’s name was ned and he died for a maid
he died for the chambermaid of fife*e*o
