The Pretty Maid Milkin' her Cow

P. Grainger

It was early one fine summer's mornin'

When the birds sat and sung odden each bough,

I heard a young damsel thus singin',

Thedden as she sat milkin' her cow.

She sang with a voice so melodious,

Which made me scarce able to go,

For my heart it ė was ė smothered with sorrow,

By the pretty maid milkin' her cow.
