Fair And Tender Ladies Lyrics - A Health To The Ladies - Craig Herbertson

Come all ye fair and tender ladies, 

Take warning how you court young men, 

They're like the stars on a summer's morning, 

First they appear and then they're gone. 

 

If I'd a known before I courted, 

I never would have courted none, 

I'd a locked my heart in a box of golden, 

And fastened it up with a silver pin. 

 

I wish I were a little sparrow, 

And I had wings and I could fly, 

I'd fly away to my own false lover, 

And when he's talking I'd draw nigh, 

 

But I am not a little sparrow, 

I have no wings, nor can I fly, 

I'll sit right here, and weep in sorrow, 

And try to pass my troubles by.
