He's Young But He's Growing - Ashley Hutchings/Cara Dillon (卡拉·迪伦)/Jim Boyes/John Tams[00:00:00]
Oh father dear father[00:00:00]
You've done me to much wrong[00:00:04]
You've gone and got me married[00:00:08]
To a boy who is too young[00:00:11]
For he is only 16 years[00:00:15]
And I am 21[00:00:19]
Oh my darling boy is young[00:00:22]
But he's growing[00:00:26]
Oh daughter dear daughter[00:00:30]
It's you who have done wrong[00:00:34]
For you and he together[00:00:38]
Have gone and got a son[00:00:41]
And he must have a father[00:00:45]
When I am dead and gone[00:00:49]
Oh your darling boy is young[00:00:52]
But he's growing[00:00:56]
One day as I was walking[00:01:00]
Down by the college wall[00:01:04]
I saw the young men[00:01:08]
They were playing football[00:01:11]
My true love was there[00:01:15]
He was the finest of them all[00:01:18]
My darling boy is young[00:01:23]
But he's growing[00:01:26]
Another day I was walking[00:01:30]
Down by the college wall[00:01:34]
I saw the pusher[00:01:38]
He was making his call[00:01:41]
My true love was there[00:01:45]
He was the palest of them all[00:01:48]
Oh the dealer put an end[00:01:52]
To his growing[00:01:56]
At the age of sixteen years married man[00:02:31]
And at the age of seventeen[00:02:38]
The father of a son[00:02:41]
At the age of sixteen years[00:02:45]
The grass grew over him[00:02:49]
Of the dealer put an end[00:02:53]
To his growing[00:02:56]
Oh the springtime is past[00:03:00]
And the summer's coming on[00:03:04]
It's earring beads and bangles[00:03:07]
The young girls have put on[00:03:11]
Once I had a true love[00:03:15]
But now I have got none[00:03:19]
But I 'll watch over[00:03:22]
His son[00:03:24]
While he's growing[00:03:26]
