the snow IT melt St河soonest

Oh, the snow it melts the soonest when the winds begin to sing,
And the corn it ripens fastest when the frost is settling in,
And when a woman tells me my face shell soon forget,
Before well part, Ill wage a croon, shes fain to followt yet.
Oh, the snow it melts the soonest when the winds begin to sing,
And the swallow skims without a thought as long as it is spring;
But when spring goes, and winter blows, my lassie youll be fain,
For all your pride, to follow me across the stormy main.
Oh, the snow it melts the soonest when the winds begin to sing ,
And the bee that flew when summer shone, in winter cannot sting;
Ive seen a womans anger melt betwixt the night and morn,
Oh its surely not a harder thing to tame a womans scorn.
Oh, never say me farewell here, no farewell Ill receive,
And you shall set me to the stile and kiss and take your leave;
Ill stay until the curlew calls and the martlet takes his wing,
Oh, the snow it melts the soonest when the winds begin to sing.
