OR TREES GROW HIGH, ETC.)
The trees they grow
high, the leaves they do grow green
Many is the time my true love I've seen
Many an hour I
have watched him all alone
He's young, but he's daily growing
Father, dear father,
you've done me great wrong
You have married me to a boy who is too young
I'm twice twelve
and he is but fourteen
He's young, but he's daily growing
Daughter, dear daughter,
I've done you no wrong
I have married you to a great lord's son
He'll be a man for you
when I am dead and gone
He's young, but he's daily growing
Father, dear father, if
you see fit
We'll send him to college for another year yet
I'll tie blue ribbons all
around his head
To let the maidens know that he's married
One day I was looking o'er
my father's castle wall
I spied all the boys aplaying at the ball
My own true love was the
flower of them all
He's young, but he's daily growing
At the age of fourteen, he was
a married man
At the age of fifteen, the father of a son
At the age of sixteen, his grave
it was green
Have gone, to be wasted in battle.
And death had put an end to his
growing
I'll buy my love some flannel and I will make a shroud
With every stitch I
put in it, the tears they will pour down
With every stitch I put in it, how the tears will
flow
Cruel fate has put an end to his growing
recorded on: Joan Baez/2, Jean Redpath
