Вступление
[Verse 1]
F Bb F
Oh hard is the fortune of all womankind,
Dm Bb Am Dm C Gm
She's always con-trolled, she's always con-fined
C F Bb C Gm
Controlled by her parents un-til she's a wife,
Dm Bb F Bb F
A slave to her husband the rest of her life
[Verse 2]
F Bb F
Oh, I'm just a poor girl, my fortune is sad,
Dm Bb Am Dm C Gm
I've always been courted by the wagoner's lad,
C F Bb C Gm
He's courted me daily, by night and by day,
Dm Bb F Bb F
And now he is loading and going away.
[Verse 3]
F Bb F
Oh, my parents don't like him, because he is poor,
Dm Bb Am Dm C Gm
They say he's not worthy of entering my door,
C F Bb C Gm
He works for a living, his money's his own,
Dm Bb F Bb F
And if they don't like it they can leave you alone.
[Verse 4]
F Bb F
"Oh, horses are hungry, go feed them some hay,
Dm Bb Am Dm C Gm
Then sit down here by me, as long as you may."
C F Bb C Gm
"My horses ain't hungry, they son't eat your hay,
Dm Bb F Bb F
So fare thee well darlin', I'll be on my way."
[Verse 5]
F Bb F
"Oh, your wagon needs greasing, your whip is to mend,
Dm Bb Am Dm C Gm
Then sit down here by me, as long as you can."
C F Bb C Gm
"My wagon is greasy, my whip's in my hand,
Dm Bb F Bb F
So fare thee well darlin', no longer to stand."
