A recent thread asking about people's favorite songs made me think of this one. It doesn't seem to be on the Internet, so I thought I would put it on.

Come all you pretty maidens, wherever you be.
Don't place your affections on a green willow tree.
The leaves they will wither; the roots will decay.
My true love has left me and wandered away.

A meeting is a pleasure; a parting is grief.
An unconstant lover is worse than a thief.
A thief, he will come rob you, and take what you have.
An unconstant love will lead to the grave.

The cuckoo is a fair bird; she sings as she flies.
She brings us glad tidings and tell us no lies.
She feeds on pretty flowers to make her voice clear.
And when she sings "cuckoo" the summer is here.

I'm going to send the MIDI to Joe. If that works, the tune will appear soon.
