A Girl in the Valley

A man who came to my valley
 A man I hardly knew
 A man who came to my garden
 Grew to love me
 A girl I saw in a valley
 A girl I hardly knew
 A girl at work in her garden
 Grew to love me
 From the gate, he called out so kindly
 "Lass, wouldst thou 'low me rest here? I've ridden quite far."
 "Share my tea" she bade me so gently
 Oatcakes and cream, sweet plums in a jar
 And every day to my garden
 This man, who might he be
 Came bearing baskets of roses
 For he loved me
 All I own I'd give!
 Just a garden
 All I would ask is never to-
 Never to leave!
 Say you'll have me
 Safe you will keep me
 Where you would lead me
 There I would
 There I would, there I would
 There I would go
 A man who came to my valley (A girl I saw in a valley)
 A man I hardly knew (A girl I hardly knew)
 A man who gave me a garden (A girl who gave me a garden)
 Grew to love me (Grew to love me)
