MANY YOUNG MEN OF TWENTY? Many young men of twenty said goodbye On that long day From break of dawn until the sun was high Many young men of twenty said goodbye They loved the mountains and the glens The lassies and the fine young men. I saw the tear of every girl and boy Many young men of twenty said goodbye My boy Jimmy left that day When the big ship sailed away He sailed away and left me here to die Many young men of twenty said goodbye My Jimmy said he'd sail across the sea He swore an oath He'd sail back one day and marry me. My Jimmy said he'd sail across the sea But my Jimmy let me down And now they mock me in the town Oh my Jimmy please come back to me Oh my Jimmy please come back to me. The dawn was dark upon the mountain rim The day he left I knew I bore the living child of him. I knew I bore the living child of him And that child is borne to me My Jimmy's far across the sea The dawn is dark on upon the mountain rim Here I stand and wait for my love Jim. filename[ MENOF20 MX apr00  8note Sheet |
