Winter's Bone movie - Fair And Tender Ladies lyrics

rate me

come all you fair and tender ladies

take warning how you court your men

there like a star on a summer morning

they first appear and then there gone

they'll tell to you some loving story

then they make you think that they love you well

then away they'll go to court some other

and leave you there in grief to dwell

i wish i was on some tall mountain

where the ivy rocks are black as ink

i'd write a letter to my false true lover

whose cheeks are like the morning dew

oh love is handsome love is charming

and love is pretty while it's new

but love grows cold as love grows old

and fades away like morning dew

(repeat chours)
