my mother don’t mind
C D
and my father won’t slight you
C D
for your lack of kind
C D
and she laid her hand on me
C D
and this is she did say
C D
it will not be long love
C D
till our wedding day

and she went away from me
C D
and moves through the fair
C D
and fondly i watched her
C D
move here and move there
C D
and then she went homeward
C D
just one star awake
C D
like a swan in the evening
C D
moves over the lake

last night she came to me
C D
my dead love came in
C D
so softly she came
C D
that her feet made no din
C D
and she laid her hand on me
C D
and this she did say
C D
oh , it will not be long love

till our wedding day
