Fare Thee Well Cold Winter Lyrics

Fare thee well, cold winter
And fare thee well, cold frost;
Nothing have I gained by thee
But a false young girl at last.
But if she's got another one
And they both can't agree,
She's welcome to stay with him
And think no more of me.

She wrote to me a letter
To say that she was sad;
I quickly wrote the answer back
To say that I were glad.
She may keep her paper
And I will keep my time,
For what I'd have a true young girl
I'd search the world around.

One day that I was walking
All through the shady grove,
'Twas there I met me own true love, She handed me a rose.
Thinking I should keep it
To never pass her by,
For what I'd have a true young girl
I'd lay me down and die.

False deceitful young girls
Are easy to be found,
For what I'd have a true young girl
I'd search this world around.
And if she's got another one
And they can't both agree,
She's welcome to stay with him
And think no more of me.

I'll be all smiles tonight, boys,
I'll be all smiles tonight
If me heart should break tomorrow
I'll be all smiles tonight.
