I wish I wish I wish in vain
I wish I was a youth again
But a youth again I can never be
Till apples grow on an ivy tree
I left me father I left me mother
I left all my sisters and brothers too
I left all my friends and my own religion
I left them all for to follow you
But the sweetest apple is the soonest rotten
And the hottest love is the soonest cold
And what can`t be cured love must be endured love
And now I am bound for Americay
And love is pleasin` and love is teasin`
And love is a pleasure when first it`s new
But as it grows older sure the love grows colder
And it fades away like the morning dew
For love and porter makes a young man older
And love and whiskey makes him old and grey
And what can`t be cured love must be endured love
And now I am bound for Americay
