5.Monday morning(Artist:Peter,Paul,Mary)
Monday morning
early one morning one morning in spring.
to hear the birds whistle.
the nightingale sing.
I met a fair maiden who sweety did sing.
I'm going to be married next monday morning.
how old are u my fair young maid.
here in this valley,this valley so green.
how old are you my fair young maid.
I'm going to be sixteen next Monday morning.
well sixteen years old.
that's to young to marry.
so make my advice five years later to marry.
for marriage brings troubles sorrows.
begin so put off your wedding for Monday morning.
you talk like a mad man,a man with no skill.
three years I've been waiting against my own will.
and now i'm determined to have my own way.
and I'm going to be married next Monday morning.
next monday morning the bells they'll ring.
my true love'll buy me a gay golden ring.
also he'll buy me a new pretty gown.
to ware at my wedding next Monday morning.
next monday night when I go to my bed.
and I turn around to the man that I've wed.
around his middle my two arms I'll fling.
and I wish to my soul it was Monday morning.
