lyrics

Here I sit on Primrose Hill
Who could blame me,cry my fill
And every tear would turn a mill
Jenny has gone for a soldier

I sold my rod, I sold my reel
My plow-share and my potter's wheel
To buy my love a sword of steel
Jenny has gone for a soldier

Me, oh my, I loved her so
It broke my heart to see her go
Now only time can heal my woe
Jenny has gone for a soldier

I'll dye my hair, I'll dye it black
A coat of mourning, on my back
For the lady-love I lack
Jenny has gone for a soldier
