when I was a young girl
I had me a man
I called him me Papa
and he held me hand
while I was a young girl
me Papa did die
I sat by his graveside
and for long I did cry
la la le la la li li li li...
la la le la la li li li li...
when I was a women
I had me a man
I called him me husband
and I gave him me hand
while I was a bride
me husband did die
I sat by his graveside
and for long I did cry
la la le la la li li li li...
la la le la la li li li li...
when I was a widow
I had me a man
I called him me son
and I held his hand
before he was grown
me son did die
I sat by his graveside
and for long I did cry
la la le la la li li li li...
la la le la la li li li li...
now I am old
I have me no man
no one to console me
or to hold me hand
me times almost spent
and soon I will die
no one will sit by me graveside
and no one will cry
la la le la la li li li li...
la la le la la li li li li...
la la le la la li li li li...
la la le la la li li li li...
