Jonny Kearney & Lucy Farrell hares on the mountain

Select language to translate this lyric

Oh Sally my dear
I wish I could wed you
Oh Sally my dear
I wish I could wed you
She smiled and replied
Then you'd say I misled you
If young girls could sing like blackbirds and thrushes
If young girls could sing like blackbirds and thrushes
How many young men would go beating the bushes
If all the young girls were hares on a mountain
If all the young girls were hares on a mountain
How many young men would take guns and go hunting
Oh Sally oh Sally
It's you I'd be kissing
Oh Sally oh Sally
It's you I'd be kissing
She smiled and replied
You don't know what you're missing
If all the young men were ducks on the water
If all the young men were ducks on the water
How many young girls would undress and dive after
If all the young men were hares on the mountain
If all the young men were hares on the mountain
How many young girls would take guns and go hunting
If all the young men were hares on the mountain
If all the young men were hares on a mountain
