Q. Down by the salley gardens…
my love and I did meet
with little snow-white feet
rests my lover
she bid me take love easy
Q. She bid me take love easy…
in the salley gardens
like the grass on the weirs
as the leaves grow on the tree
whenever I can
Q. But I was young and foolish…
and now am full of tears
but I'm not anymore
and took her snow-white hand
sometimes but not always
Q. She passed the salley gardens…
with little snow-white hands
with little snow-white feet
by the willow trees
only on Saturdays
Q. She bid me take life easy…
as the leaves grow on the tree
but now I'm full of tears
as the grass grows on the weirs
and passed with snow-white feet
