Well, a blacksmith courted me, I loved him a-dearly
C Am
He played upon his pipes both neat and a-trimly
C G Am
With his hammer in his hand, he strikes so steady
C G Am
And I love to hear him call all round the smithy
C Am
Well, I love to watch my love with his hammer a-swinging
C Am
And I love to hear it fall on the anvil a-ringing
C G Am
Well, the note is loud and clear, the sparks are flying
C G Am
And my love is handsome then, there's no denying
C Am
My love's at the bellows now, the fire is roaring
C Am
It is getting mighty hot, the flames are soaring
C G Am
Nothing can be so gay when my love is blowing
C G Am
And at night it's bright as day when my love is blowing
C Am
Where has my lover gone with his cheeks like roses?
C Am
He has gone across yon fields gathering primroses
C G Am
And that sun doth shine too clear, it will burn his beauty
C G Am
I will go and seek my love and do my duty
C Am
Strange news has come to town, strange news is carried
C Am
Strange news flies up and down that my love is married
C G Am
Well, I wish him joy though he's my love no longer
C G Am
But I love my old love still, my blacksmith yonder
C Am A
And a blacksmith courted me, I loved him a-dearly
