All around my hat, I will wear the green willow,
And all around my hat, for a twelve-month and a day.
And if anyone should ask me the reason why I'm wearin' it,
It's all for my true love who's far, far, away

Fare thee

and fare thee well cold

For

nothing
[

[

gained,
but my own true

[

I’ll

I will wear the green

for a twelve-month
