[00:18.81] I wish, I wish,
[00:32.51] but it's all in vain
[00:38.23] I wish I was a maid again
[00:45.71] But a maid again I never can be
[00:56.45] Till apples grow on an orange tree
[01:14.82] I wish my baby it was born
[01:20.33] And smiling on its daddy's knee
[01:25.74] Then I would go to yon churchyard
[01:33.02] And let the long green grass grow over me
[01:46.23] When my apron-strings hung low
[01:54.84] He followed me through frost and snow
[02:01.18] But now my apron's to my chin
[02:06.12] He goes on by and says nothing
[02:20.13] Oh grief, oh grief,
[02:27.41] please tell me why
[02:31.79] That girl has more gold than I
[02:36.90] More gold than I, more beauty, more fame
[02:49.37] Yet for her it will be the same
[03:01.36] So I wish, I wish,
[03:11.64] but it's all in vain
[03:17.25] I wish I was a maid again
[03:26.88] But a maid again I never can be
[03:39.37] Till apples grow on an orange tree
[03:58.39] I wish, I wish,but it's all in vain
[04:01.45] I wish I was a maid again
[04:32.36] I wish, I wish, but it's all in vain
[04:35.88] I wish I was a maid again
[05:09.29] I wish, I wish,
[05:21.92] but it's all in vain
[05:27.26] I wish I was a maid again
[05:41.60] But a maid again I never can be
[05:58.73] Till apples grow on an orange tree
