Lyrics

Married him in April
Lost him in July

Listen to my story and I'll tell you why
They said that he?d been poaching and stealing wine
They said I wouldn't see him for a long, long time

They said he's gone to America
Towards a land that some called Virginia
They said he's gone to America

Married him in April
Lost him in July

They took him as a prisoner then told me why
They said that they had sent him where poachers go
I asked if I could see him but they said no

They said he's gone to America
Towards a land that some called Virginia
They said he's gone to America

Married him in April
Lost him in July

Curse the men who took him curse their wicked lie
The night they saw him poaching and stealing wine
Was the night that he took comfort in these arms of mine

But now he's gone to America
Towards a land that some called Virginia
They said he's gone to America

Married him in April
Lost him in July
