《Johnny I Hardly Knew》歌词

[00:00:00] The Butcher Boy - The Clancy Brothers/Tommy Makem

[00:00:07] In London city where I did dwell

[00:00:13] A butcher boy I loved right well

[00:00:20] He courted me my life away

[00:00:27] But now with me he will not stay

[00:00:33] I wish I wish I wish in vain

[00:00:40] I wish I was a maid again

[00:00:46] A maid again I ne'er will be

[00:00:53] 'Til cherries grow on an apple tree

[00:01:00] I wish my baby it was born

[00:01:07] And smiling on its daddy's knee

[00:01:13] And me poor girl to be dead and gone

[00:01:20] With the long green grass growing over me

[00:01:27] She went upstairs to go to bed

[00:01:33] And calling up her mother said

[00:01:40] Give me a chair 'til I sit down

[00:01:47] And a pen and ink 'til I write down

[00:01:54] And at every line cried willie dear

[00:02:00] At every word she dropped a tear

[00:02:07] Oh what a foolish girl was I

[00:02:14] To be led astray by a butcher boy

[00:02:21] He went upstairs and the door he broke

[00:02:27] He found her hanging from a rope

[00:02:34] He took his knife and he cut her down

[00:02:41] And in her pocket these words he found

[00:02:48] Oh make my grave large wide and deep

[00:02:54] Put a marble stone at my head and feet

[00:03:01] And in the middle a turtle dove

[00:03:08] That the world may know that I died for love
