1. Old Ballad - The Old Oak Tree

   

   Roinn Roinn Postáil

   Twas on a summer’s holiday
   To Yorkshire I did go
   To spend a little holiday
   With one wee girl I know,
   And as sure as I’m a sinner
   This girl I mean to win
   And marry her next summer
   And then we shall have fun.

   The summer sun was glowing,
   The farmers’ men were mowing,
   The river gently flowing,
   And it filled our hearts with glee,
   The birds their notes were swelling,
   I to her my love was telling,
   And we seated ‘neath the branches
   Of the old Oak Tree.

   The good old man, the farmer,
   He said that he would rather
   I’d marry his young daughter
   And take her for my own;
   In his farm there’s forty acres,
   It grows flowers, fruit, and potatoes,
   But she’s the fairest flower
