1. Down by the Sally Gardens my love and I did meet she passed the Sally Gardens with little snow-white feet she bid me take love easy as the leaves grow on the tree but I being young and foolish with her would not agree. 2. In the field by the river my love and I did stand and on my leaning shoulder she laid her snow-white hand she bid me take life easy as the grass grows on the weirs but I was young and foolish and now I'm full of tears.
