Down By the Sally Gardens

Asonance

1. Down by the Sally Gardens my love and I did meet
   she passed the Sally Gardens with little snow-white feet
   she bid me take love easy as the leaves grow on the tree
   but I being young and foolish with her would not agree.

2. In the field by the river my love and I did stand
   and on my leaning shoulder she laid her snow-white hand
   she bid me take life easy as the grass grows on the weirs
   but I was young and foolish and now I'm full of tears.
