Down by the Sally Gardens

Roger Whittaker (born 22 March 1936) is an Anglo-Kenyan singer-songwriter and musician. His music can be described as easy listening or perhaps best as ballads. He is best known for his baritone singing voice and trademark whistling ability. American audiences are most familiar with his 1970 hit "New World in the Morning" and his 1975 hit "The Last Farewell," the latter of which is his only single to hit the Billboard Hot 100 (it made the Top 20) and also hit #1 on the Adult Contemporary chart. more »

Down by the Sally Gardens
My love and I did meet
She passed the Sally Gardens
With little snow-white feet

She bid me take love easy
As the leaves grow on the tree
But I being young and foolish
With her did not agree

In a field by the river
My love and I did stand
And on my leaning shoulder
She placed her snow-white hand

She bid me take life easy
As the grass grows on the weirs
But I was young and foolish
And now am full of tears
