COME ALL YOU MAIDENS
YOUNG AND FAIR
ALL YOU THAT ARE
BLOOMING IN YOUR PRIME
ALWAYS BEWARE
AND KEEP YOUR GARDEN FAIR
LET NO MAN STEAL
AWAY YOUR THYME
FOR THYME IT IS
A PRECIOUS THING
AND THYME BRINGS
ALL THINGS TO MY MIND
THYME WITH ALL ITS FLAVOURS
ALONG WITH ALL ITS JOYS
THYME BRINGS ALL
THINGS TO MY MIND
ONCE SHE HAD
A BUNCH OF THYME
SHE THOUGHT IT
NEVER WOULD DECAY
THEN CAME A LUSTY SAILOR
WHO CHANCED TO PASS HER WAY
AND HE STOLE HER
BUNCH OF THYME AWAY
THE SAILOR GAVE TO HER A ROSE
A ROSE THAT
NEVER WOULD DECAY
HE GAVE IT TO HER
TO KEEP HER REMINDED
OF WHEN HE STOLE
HER THYME AWAY
SO, COME ALL YOU MAIDENS
YOUNG AND FAIR
ALL YOU THAT ARE
BLOOMIN' IN YOUR PRIME
ALWAYS BEWARE
AND KEEP YOUR GARDEN FAIR
LET NO MAN STEAL
AWAY YOUR THYME
FOR THYME IT IS
A PRECIOUS THING
AND THYME BRINGS
ALL THINGS TO MY MIND
THYME WITH ALL ITS FLAVOURS
ALONG WITH ALL ITS JOYS
THYME BRINGS ALL
THINGS TO AN END
