RISE UP LOVELY MOLLY

Rise up lovely Molly
The frost is all over
Banish misfortune
And away we go

Some say that I’m foolish
And more say I’m wise
There is a small enchanted glen that I know
Apples in winter, banish misfortune
Oh love ‘tis a cold frozen night and I am covered in snow
As I roved out on a foggy morning in harvest
The morning star, the mountain road
Over high high hills and lofty mountains
On a long long summer’s day

ALONG WITH MY LOVE I’LL GO

If all the young maidens
Were blackbirds and thrushes
All the young men would be beating the bushes
Numbers I’ve courted and kissed in my time
I will visit my love on the mountain
Last night I dreamed of my own true love
The blackberry blossom
Rise up lovely Molly
Over high high hills and lofty mountains
On a long long summer’s day
Along with my love I’ll go

Rise up lovely Molly
The frost is all over
Banish misfortune
And away we go

Some say that I’m foolish
And more say I’m wise
There is a small enchanted glen that I know
Apples in winter, contentment is wealth
Oh love ‘tis a cold frozen night and I am covered in snow
As I roved out on a foggy morning in harvest
The morning star, the mountain road
Over high, high hills and lofty mountains
On a long, long summer’s day

ALONG WITH MY LOVE I’LL GO

Rise up lovely Molly
The frost is all over
Banish Misfortune
And away we go

Some say that I’m foolish
And more say I’m wise.
