W: W:When first to this country, a stranger, Curiosity forced me to roam
W:Over Europe I resolved to be a ranger, When I left Philadelphia my home.
W: W:We quickly sailed over to England, Where forms of great beauty do shine
W:And twas there that I met a young woman, And I wished in my heart she was mine.
W: W:Twas there that I met a young woman, she seemed like some stranger to me
W:As she rose from the reeds by the water, On the green mossy banks of the Lea.
W: W:I stepped up and wished her good morning, And her cheeks they did blush like some rose
W:I said "Oh how the river is charming, and your guardian I'll be if you choose"
W: W:She said "Sir I ne'er want a guardian, Kind sir you are a stranger to me,
W:And yonder's my father a-coming, O'er the green mossy banks of the Lea.
W: W:I stepped up and wished him good morning, saying "Your daughter a lady shall be
W:She shall ride in a carriage and horses, O'er the green mossy banks of the Lea"
W: W:They invited me back to their cottage, and soon this fair maiden was mine
W:And twas there I did build a fine castle, In grandeur and splendour to shine.
W: W:So now this American stranger, All pastimes and pleasures can see
W:He can live with his gentle young woman, On the green mossy banks of the Lea.
