THE BROWN AND THE YELLOW ALE As I walked down the road one fine summers morning, Oh, the brown and the yellow ale I met with a young man without any warning Oh, love of my heart He asked me if the woman by my side was my daughter Oh, the brown and the yellow ale And when I said she's my wife his manner didn't alter Oh, love of my heart He asked me if I'd lend her for an hour and a day, Oh, the brown and the yellow ale I said, "if she thinks that's fair you can take her away." Oh, love of my heart Then you take the high road and I'll be off with her Oh, the brown and the yellow ale And I'll meet you again by the ford of the river. Oh, love of my heart I waited by that ford for an hour and a quarter Oh, the brown and the yellow ale And when she came to me, 'twas without shame I saw her. Oh, love of my heart When she told me her story, sure I lay down and I died, Oh, the brown and the yellow ale She sent two men for timber, and she never even cried. Oh, love of my heart A board of elder and a board of holly, Oh, the brown and the yellow ale And three great yards of a shroud all about me. Oh, love of my heart If me own little mother, she had never been a woman, O the brown and the yellow ale I would tell you many's another tale about women.
