verse 1 She's like a swallow that flies so high, She's like a river that never runs dry, She's like the sunshine on the lee shore, She loves her love and love's no more. verse 2 'Tis out in the meadow this fair maid did go, A picking a lovely primrose, The more she plucked the more she pulled, Until she's got her apron full. verse 3 She climbed on yonder hill above, To give a rose unto her love, She gave him one, she gave him three, She gave her heart for company. verse 4 And as they sat on yonder hill above, To give a rose unto her love. She gave him one, she gave him three She gave her heart for company Verse 5 And as they sat on yonder hill His heart grew hard, so harder still. He has two hearts instead of one; She says, young man what have you done. Verse 6 How foolish, foolish you must be, To think I loved no one but thee; This world's not made for one alone; I take delight in every home.
