I am seeking lyrics beyond the first verse for a song which begins:In Tarrytown, there did dwell, a butcher boy, I knew him well He courted me my life away, and now at home he will no longer stay.
Cho: Wide and deep, my grave shall be, with the wild goose grasses growing over me...(2x)
Anyone know the rest of this sad (and typical) tale? History ? (I assume it is a colonial Hudson Valley variant of an age old theme).
Thanks,
Amos
