1. Come all you young fellows that carry a gun, / Beware of late shooting when daylight is done; / For 'tis little you reckon what hazards you run, / I shot my true love at the setting of the sun / In a shower of rain as my darling did hie / All under the bushes to keep herself dry, / With her head in her apron I thought her a swan, / And I shot my true love at the setting of the sun.
