| [00:12.875] |
Down in some lone valley in a lonesome place |
| [00:25.625] |
Where the wild birds all whistle and their notes do increase |
| [00:38.907] |
Farewell Pretty Saro I must bid you adieu |
| [00:52.191] |
And I'll dream of Pretty Saro wherever I go |
| [01:07.073] |
My love she won't have me and I understand |
| [01:19.936] |
She wants a rich merchant and I have no land |
| [01:33.032] |
I cannot maintain her, I've no silver and gold |
| [01:46.067] |
Can't give her the nice things that a big house will hold |
| [02:01.551] |
But if I were a merchant and I could write a fine hand |
| [02:14.716] |
And I'd write my love a letter that she'd understand |
| [02:28.428] |
I'd write it by the river where the waters o'erflow |
| [02:43.235] |
And I'll dream of Pretty Saro wherever I go |
