Come all you fair and tender ladiesTake warning how you court your menThere like a star on a summer morningThey first appear and then there goneThey'll tell to you some loving storyThen they make you think that they love you wellThen away they'll go to court some otherAnd leave you there in grief to dwellI wish I was on some tall mountainWhere the ivy rocks are black as inkI'd write a letter to my false true loverWhose cheeks are like the morning dewOh love is handsome love is charmingAnd love is pretty while it's newBut love grows cold as love grows oldAnd fades away like morning dew(Chorus)
