None of them
Alasdair Roberts
“Molly Bawn”
D G
Come all you young fathers that handle a gun,
D C A
Beware of night-rambling by the setting of the sun.
D G
And beware of an accident that happened of late,
D C A
To young Molly Bawn, and sad was her fate.
D G
She was going to her uncle's, when a shower came on.
D C A
She went under a green bush, the shower to shun.
D G
With her white apron 'round her, he took her for a swan,
D C A
And he shot her and killed her by the setting of the sun.
D G
He ran to his father, with his gun in his hand,
D C A
Crying, "Father, dear Father, I have shot Molly Bawn!
D G
I have shot that fair damsel, I have taken the life
D C A
Of the one I intended to take as my wife."
D G
"She was going to her uncle's, when a shower came on.
D C A
She went under a green bush, the shower to shun.
D G
With her white apron 'round her, I took her for a swan,
D C A
And I shot her and killed her by the setting of the sun."
D G
Oh, Jimmy, dear Jimmy, do not run away.
D C A
Do not leave your own country till your trial day.
D G
Do not leave your own country till your trial come on,
D C A
For they never will hang you for the loss of that swan.
D G
The night before Molly's funeral, her ghost did appear,
D C A
Crying, "Uncle, dear Uncle, let Jimmy go clear.
D G
I was going to my uncle's when a shower came on.
D C A
I went under a green bush, the shower to shun.
D G
With my white apron 'round me, he took me for a swan.
D C A
Won't you tell him he's forgiven, by his own Molly Bawn?"
