Far away in some deep mountain
Where the merry sunbeams play
There I wanmdered thru the clover
Singing to a village maid

She was dearer than the dearest
Ever loving kind and true
And she wore beneaht her bonnet
Amber tressee tied in blue

Fact decreed that we parted
When the leaves of autumn fell
Then two hearts were seperated
That had loved each other well

* Refrain

She was all I had to cherish
Every loving king and true
Now I see in every vision
Amber tresses tied in blue

* Refrain
