Never Prove False - The Deep Dark Woods

Fair thee well my pretty little maid

Fair thee well for a while

I’m going away to the merry green land

More than one thousand miles

More than one thousand miles

I’m leaving in the month of May

Hope you understand

Will you ever prove false to me

When I’m in some foreign land

When I’m in some foreign land

I will never prove false to you

And I will never lie

It’d hard my love for the coming months

Take a long time to go by

They’ll take a long time to go by

The night is black as coal

And my heart is blue

If I ever prove false to you

I will bid this world adieu

I will bid this world adieu

I shouldn’t really tell this story

I just can’t deny

That the woman standing before me

Can make any man go wild

Can make any man go wild

My story is over

I just couldn’t be true

So I’ll make my stand on top of the hill

And I will bid this world adieu

I will bid this world adieu
