just as the tide was flowing - tim gollins lyrics

one morning in the month of may
down by a rolling river
there a jolly sailor chanced to stray
and he beheld some lover
her cheeks were red, her eyes were brown
her hair in ringlets hanging down
her lovely brow without a frown
just as the tide was flowing

my pretty maid, to her he said
how come you here so early
my heart by you it is betrayed
and i might love you dearly
i am a sailor come from sea
if you will accept my company
for to walk and view thе fishes play
just as the tide was flowing

no morе did stay, but on the way
they both did gang together
the small birds sing, and the lambs did play
and pleasant was the weather
they being weary both sat down
beneath the trees with the branches ’round
and what they said will ne’er be known
just as the tide was flowing
upon the grass she then did roll
her colour it ran changing
this pretty maid called out alas
don’t let your mind be ranging
she gave him twenty pounds in store
saying, meet me when you will there’s more!
for a jolly sailor i adore
just as the tide was flowing
