Are you going to Scarborough fair?
Parsley sage rosemary and thyme
Remember me to one who lives there
He once was a true love of mine
Tell him to make me a cambric shirt
Parsley sage rosemary and thyme
Without no seam, nor needlework
Then he'll be a true love of mine
Tell him to find me an acre of land
Parsley sage rosemary and thyme
Between the salt water and the sea strand
Then he'll be a true love of mine
Are you going to Scarborough fair?
Parsley sage rosemary and thyme
Remember me to one who lives there
The once was a true love of mine

Well my name is Jane Stewart
I'm a Cannington lass
And today I have come a long way
CHORUS
So be easy and free
When you're walking with me
I'm a girl you don't meet every day
I've got acres of land and men I command
I've always a penny to spare
CHORUS
If you come close to me I will sing just for thee
I have done so on many a day

Fields of Athenry

|
By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young girl calling
Michael they have taken you away
For you stole Trevelyn's corn
So the young might see the morn
Now a prison ship lies waiting in the bay
CHORUS
Low lie the fields of Athenry
Where once we watched the small free birds fly
Our love was on the wing, we had dreams and songs to sing
It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry
By a lonely prison wall
I heard a young man calling
Nothing matters, Mary, when you're free
Against the famine and the crown
I rebelled, they struck me down
Now you must raise our child with dignity
CHORUS
By a lonely harbor wall she watched the last star falling
As the prison ship sailed out against the sky
For she'll live to hope and pray, for her love in Botany bay
It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry
CHORUS
