Select language to translate this lyric
As I walked out in the bright morning,
to take a pleasant walk,
I sat down beside an old stone wall,
just to hear two lovers talk
just to hear two lovers talk my love,
to hear what they might say,
so I might learn a little more love before I go away.
P it stands for Paddy I suppose,
J for my love John,
W stands for false Willy-o,
but Johnny is the fairest man
Johnny is the fairest man she said,
Johnny is the fairest man,
I don't care what anybody says for Johnny is the fairest man.
Come and sit beside me my love
nah, I don't have the time
for you love another little lad
and your hearts no longer mine
and your hearts no longer mine he said,
hearts no longer mine!
I don't care what anybody says for your hearts no longer mine.
P it stands for Paddy I suppose,
J for my love John,
W stands for false Willy-o,
but Johnny is the fairest man
Johnny is the fairest man she said,
Johnny is the fairest man,
I don't care what anybody says for Johnny is the fairest man.
Well I will climb a high high tree
and rob a wild birds nest,
back I'll bring what I find there
to the girl I love the best
to the girl I love the best he said
to the girl I love the best
back I'll bring what I find there
to the girl I love the best.
P it stands for Paddy I suppose,
J for my love John,
W stands for false Willy-o,
but Johnny is the fairest man
Johnny is the fairest man she said,
Johnny is the fairest man,
I don't care what anybody says for Johnny is the fairest man.
