There are tons of recordings of this song by dozens of artists but this one is probably my fave

Johnny, Lovely Johnny



The high walls of Derry look so dismal and grey,

And so does lovely Johnny. He is now going away.

He is going to bonny Scotland some sweetheart to see.

May the high powers above send him safe home to me.



Oh, Johnny, lovely Johnny, do you mind the day

When you came to my window to steal me away?

You promised you would marry me up above female kind.

Oh, Johnny, lovely Johnny, what has altered your mind?



Oh, Annie, lovely Annie, it was all but in jest,

For I never intended to make you my best.

I never intended to make you my wife.

Oh, Annie, lovely Annie, all the days of my life.



The first time I met you, 'tis well I do own,

'Twas in my father's garden in the County Tyrone,

With my white apron round us, to shield out the wind.

Oh, Johnny, lovely Johnny, what has altered your mind?



And the next place we sported, 'twas in yonder green grove,

Where the blackberry bushes around us they stood,

Where the oak and the apple around us did twine,

Oh Johnny, lovely Johnny, what has altered your mind?



A bunch of blue ribbons I will tie up and wear,

And a wreath of forget-me-nots I will twine round my hair.

And if ever he returns again, I will greet him with joy,

And I will kiss the lips of my own Johnny boy.

The[G] winter it is[Em] past and the[C] summer's come at[D] last

And smal[Am]l birds are[D] singing in the trees

Their little hearts are[G] glad but[Am] mine is very[D7] sad

For my[G] true love is[Am] far away from[D7] me

 

All you that are in love and cannot it remove

I pity the pain that you indure

For experience lets me know that your hearts are full of woe

It's a woe that no mortal can endure

 

A livery I will wear and I'll comb back my hair

In velvet so green I will appear

And it's then I will repair to the Curragh of Kildare

For it's there I;ll find tidings of my dear

 

The rose upon the briar and the water running free

Gives joy to the linnet and the bee

Their little hearts are blessed but mine is not at rest

For my true love is absent from me.
