GONE TO AMERICA - Steeleye Span https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cOYvtSppA9M
Married him in April, lost him in July
Listen to my story and I’ll tell you why
They said that he’d been poaching and stealing wine
They said I wouldn’t see him for a long, long time
Chorus:
They said he’s gone to America
To work the land that some called Virginia
They said he’s gone to America
