She’s Like a Swallow
[Verse 1]
She's like the swallow that flies so high
Oh, she's like the river that never runs dry
She's like the sunshine on the lee shore
I love my love and love is no more
Eh ah ah
[Verse 2]
'Twas out in the garden this fair maid did go
A-pickin' the beautiful, the primitive rose
All the more she plucked, the more she pulled
Until she got her apron full
[Verse 3]
It's out—it's out of these roses she made a bed
A stormy pillow for her head
She lay her down, nowhere she spoke
Until this fair maid's heart was broke
[Verse 1]
She's like the swallow that flies so high
And she's like the river that never runs dry
She's like the sunshine on the lee shore
I love my love and love is no, no more
No, no more
[Outro]
She's like the swallow
She's like the river
Oh
Ah
She's like the swallow that flies so high
Oh, she's like the river that never runs dry
She's like the sunshine on the lee shore
I love my love and love is no more
Eh ah ah
[Verse 2]
'Twas out in the garden this fair maid did go
A-pickin' the beautiful, the primitive rose
All the more she plucked, the more she pulled
Until she got her apron full
[Verse 3]
It's out—it's out of these roses she made a bed
A stormy pillow for her head
She lay her down, nowhere she spoke
Until this fair maid's heart was broke
[Verse 1]
She's like the swallow that flies so high
And she's like the river that never runs dry
She's like the sunshine on the lee shore
I love my love and love is no, no more
No, no more
[Outro]
She's like the swallow
She's like the river
Oh
Ah
