Blow Away the Morning Dew

by Nils Brown

Lyrics
There was a shepherd boy
Keeping sheep upon the hill
He laid his bow and arrow down
Hope for to take his fill

Oh, blow your winds in the mornin'
Blow your winds, high-ho
Clear away the morning dew
And blow, boys, blow

Well, he looked high and he looked low
He gave a downright look
And there he spied a pretty maid
A-swimming in the brook

Oh, blow your winds in the mornin'
Blow your winds, high-ho
Clear away the morning dew
And blow, boys, blow

Oh, carry me home to my father's gates
Before you put me down
Then you shall have my maiden head
And twenty thousand pound

Oh, blow your winds in the mornin'
Blow your winds, high-ho
Clear away the morning dew
And blow, boys, blow

And when she came to her father's gates
Oh, nimble stepped she in
And said the hearts of fool without
And I a maid within

Oh, blow your winds in the mornin'
Blow your winds, high-ho
Clear away the morning dew
And blow, boys, blow
Clear away the morning dew
And blow, boys, blow
