Maelgwyn Lyr/Chords: I wish my love was a red red rose (25) DTADD: I wish my love was a red red rose 08 Sep 98


Is this it?

I WISH MY LOVE WAS A RED RED ROSE

I wish my love was a red red rose
Growing in yon garden fair
And I to be the gardener
Of her I would take care
There's not a month throughout the year
That my love I'd renew
I'd garnish her with flowers fine
Sweet William, Thyme, and Rue

I wish I was a butterfly
I'd light on my love's breast
And If I was a blue cuckoo
I'd sing my love to rest
And if I was a nightingale
I'd sing the daylight clear
I'd sit and sing with you Molly
For once I loved you dear

I wish I was in Dublin town
And seated on the grass
In my right hand a jug of punch
And on my knee a lass
I'd call for liquor freely
And I'd pay before I'd go
I'd roll my Molly in my arms
Let the wind blow high or low
