JULIA
I first saw sweet Julia while crossing the lea She was gathering wild flowers and did not see me.
My heart seem'd to stop, than I looked up and said, Lord if you're willing, this lass I shall wed.
As my footsteps drew nearer she heard me and then She darted away, like a frightened young wren "I'm Kevin O'Malley", from over the way A goin' to call on young Tommy McKay _
She stopped, then she turned, and to me she said;
In a fortnight, young Tommy and I will be wed.
Are you the young lad who had promised to be Best Han at the wedding of Tommy and me?
***>
Well, we walked and we talked as we went on our way Of the green country side and of their wedding day Then from the cottage his face bright and gay Came the bridegroom to be, young Tommy McKay.
So I see you've met Julia, you handsome young blade, But I fear you're too late for our promise is made The bans have been called and soon there will be The wedding of lovely, young Julia and me.
Well, the wedding day came, and tommy and me Stood in the chape#l, waiting to see Beautiful Julia, as she walked down the aisle With her charm and her grace and her angelic smile.
When the wedding was over and we said good bye As I crossed o'er the lea, I could not help but sigh For my poor heart kept saying; 0, how can this be That she should love Tommy, instead of me.
Well, the years have gone by since the wedding day
0	lovely young Julia, and Tommy McKay I'm still an old bachelor and always will be For, there's no other girl but sweet Julia for me.
