(Version 1)- by (Roger McGuinn)
Fair young maid all in her garden
Strange young man come riding by
Saying fair young maid will you marry me?
And this dear sir was her reply
Oh no dear sir I cannot marry thee
For I've a love who sails the deep salt sea
Though he's been gone for seven years
Still no man shall marry me
What if he's died all in some battle slain?
Or if he's drownded in the deep salt sea
What if he's found another love
He and his new love both married be?
Well if he's died all in some battle slain
Or if he's drownded in the deep salt sea
I'll remember his good name
And still no man shall marry me.
And if he's found some other love
He and his true love both married be
I wish them health and happiness
Where they now live all across the sea
He picked her up all in his arms
And kisses gave her one two and three
Saying weep no more my own true love
For I'm your long lost John Riley
(Versão 2) - by (R.Neff/B.Gibson)
Fair young maid all in her garden
Strange young man came riding by
Saying fair young maid will you marry me?
And this then sir was her reply
Oh no kind sir I cannot marry thee
For I've a love who sails the deep salt sea
Though he's been gone these seven years
Still no man shall marry me
What if he's died all in some battle slain?
Or if he's drownded in the deep salt sea
What if he's found some other love
He and his new love both married be?
And if he's found some other love
He and his true love both married be
I wish them health and happiness
Where they now live all across the sea
He picked her up all in his arms
And kisses gave her one two and three
Saying weep no more my own true love
For I'm your long lost John Riley
saying weep no more my own true love
For I'm your long lost John Riley
