[verse 1]
in armagh town, where i did dwell
a butcher boy, i loved right well
he courted me, my life away
but now with me, he will not stay

[verse 2]
i wish, i wish, i wish in vain
i wish i was a maid again
a maid again i ne’er will be
’till cherries grow on an ivy tree

[verse 3]
i wish, i wish, my baby was born
and smiling on its daddy’s knee
and me poor girl to be dead and gone
with the long green grass growing over me

[verse 4]
she went upstairs to go to bed
on callin for, her mother said
“give me a chair ’till i sit down
a pen and ink ’till i write down”

[verse 5]
with every word she dropped a tear
and every line cried “willie dear
oh, what a foolish girl was i
to be led astray by a butcher boy”
[verse 6]
he went upstairs and the door he broke
he found her there, hanging from a rope
he took his knife and cut her down
and in her pocket, these words he found:

[verse 7]
“oh, make my grave large, wide and deep
put a marble stone at my head and feet
and in the middle, lay a turtle dove
so the world might know, i died for love”
