Died for Love Lyrics

A bald young farmer courted me
He gained my heart my liberty
He gained my heart with a free good will
And i must confess that i love him still
I wish i wish but its all in vain
I wish i was a maid again
But a maid again that never can be
Since that young farmer lay still with me
I wish my baby little was born and smilin on his fathers knee
And i was dead and in my grave

With the green grass growin all over me

There's a bird that sits in yonders tree
Some say hes blind and cannot sing
Oh i wish it being the same with me
When first i met with your company

But a marble stone at my head and feet
But a turtle white dove

To let the world know that i died for love
