Well howdy Hoady Kiwi You see you should just ask me first instead of annoying all of the nice people in the forum. Here's the lyrics as printed in the CD Rockall: (and it's even got the chords 'cos I'm to lazy to take them out!!) THE GARDENER Proud Margaret stood at her father's doorway Straight as a willow wand And by there came a gardener bold With a red rose in his hand, his hand With a red rose in his hand. O you shall have my rose, fair maid If you'll give your flower to me And among the flowers in your father's garden I'll make a gown for thee, for thee I'll make a gown for thee Your gown shall be sweet smelling thyme Your apron celandine Your petticoat o' the camomile Come kiss sweetheart and join, and join Come kiss sweetheart and join Since you have made a gown for me Among the summer flowers So I will make a suit for thee Among the winter flowers, the flowers Among the winter flowers The milk white snow will be your shirt That lies your body next And the night black rain will be your coat With the wind all at your breast, your breast The wind all at your breast The horses you shall ride upon Will be a wintry grey And every time that you pass by I'll wish you were away, away I'll wish you were away G D G D Proud Margaret stood at her father's doorway C D Straight as a willow wand G D G C And by there came a gardener bold D C D With a red rose in his hand, his hand C D With a red rose in his hand.
