The Trees They Do Grow High文本歌词

作词 : Traditional

作曲 : Baez Joan C

Oh the trees they do grow high and the leaves they do grow green

And many's the cold winter's night my love and I have seen

On a cold winter's night my love you and I alone have been

Oh my bonny boy is young but he's growing, growing, growing

My bonny boy is young but he's growing

\"Oh father, dear father, you've done to me much harm “

For to go and get me married to one who is so young

For he is only sixteen years old and I am twenty-one

Oh my bonny boy is young but he's growing, growing, growing

My bonny boy is young but he's growing.\"

\"Oh daughter, dear daughter, I'll tell you what I'll do “

I'll send your love to college for another year or two

And all around his college cap I'll tie a ribbon blue

For to let the ladies know that he's married, married, married

To let the ladies know that he's married.\"

Now at the age of sixteen he was a married man

And at the age of seventeen the father to a son

And at the age of eighteen the grass grew over him

Cruel death soon put an end to his growing, growing, growing

Cruel death soon put an end to his growing

And now my love is dead and in his grave doth lie

The green grass grows over him so very very high

I'll sit here and mourn his death until the day I die

And I'll watch all o'er his child while he's growing, growing, growing

I'll watch all o'er his child while he's growing
