LOVELY JAMIE source: “The Maine Woods Songster” edited by Phillips Barry, 1939 On last Monday evening as I went to the ball I met my own Jamie so proper and tall I asked him to go with me, a piece down the road I’d show him my father’s garden, and where I abode There’s a tree in father’s garden lovely Jamie said she Where young men and maidens they wait upon me Where young men and maidens are enjoying their rest Meet me there, lovely Jamie, you’re the boy I love best My cruel cruel father in ambush did lay And hearing the words that my Jamie did say And hearing the words as for my love he did sue With a pointed weapon he pierced my love through Oh cruel cruel father, since this is your will The innocent blood of my Jamie to spill I’ll go now to his grave where he lies so low May the heavens shine round him he’s my own darling boy Oh green grow the rushes and tall grow the trees And love it is waiting, it waits for you and me And love it is a hard thing, it conquers the best In heaven I hope to meet him, it’s there I’ll find rest.
