Lyrics:

All my friends fell out with me
Because I kept my love's company
But let them say or do what they will
I love my love with a free good will

Over the mountain I must go
Because my fortune is so low
With an aching heart and a troubled mind
At leaving my true love behind

The powers above look down and see
The parting of true love and me
'Tis as hard to part the moon and sky
As it is to part true love and I

When I have gold she has her part
When I have none she has my heart
And I gave that heart with a free good will
Upon my honour I love her still

The winter's past and the summer's come
The trees are blooming one by one
And if my true love chooses to stay
I'll stay with her till the break of day

All my friends fell out with me
Because I kept my love's company
But let them say or do what they will
I love my love with a free good will
