If I Were a Blackbird

歌曲歌詞

I am a young madon my story is sad

For once I was carefree and a brave sailor lad

I courted a lassie by night and by day

But now she has left me

And sailed far away

If I was a blackbird could whistle and sing

And I'd follow the vessel my true love sails in

And in the top rigging' I would there build my nest

And I'd flutter my hair on his lilly white breast

You promise to take me to Donnybrook Fair

To buy me red ribbons to tie up my hair

And I knowed some day you come bake at the time

Then surely you make me own lave bright

If I was a blackbird could whistle and sing

And I'd follow the vessel my true love sails in

And in the top rigging I would there build my nest

And I'd flutter my hair on his lily white breast

His parents they slight me and will not agree

That me and my sailor boy married should be

But let them deride me and do what they will

While there's breath in my body he's the one I love still

If I was a blackbird I'd whistle and sing

And I'd follow the ship that my true love sails in

And on the top riggings I'd there build my nest
