Her Mantle So Green Ye Vagabonds

[Verse 1]
As I was out walking, one evening in June
To view the fair fields, and the meadows in bloom;
I spied a pretty fair maid, she appeared like a queen
In her costly fine robes and her mantle so green

[Verse 2]
When I stepped up to her she turned in surprise
And she did not know me though I wore no disguise
Her eyes shone like diamonds her cheeks like the rose
She is one of thе fairest that nature composed

[Verse 3]
I said now my fair maid, if you comе with me
We may both join in wedlock, and married we'll be;
I will dress you in rich attire, you'll appear like a queen
In your costly fine robes and your mantle so green

[Verse 4]
She say, now my young man, I must be excused
For I'll wed with no man, you must be refused;
To the green woods I will wander to shun all men's view
For the boy I love dearly fell in famed Waterloo

[Verse 5]
And since you will not marry me, will you tell me your love's name
As I fought in that battle, I might know the same
Draw near to my garment, for there can be seen
His name is embroidered on my mantle so green
