 Come_ Asus2all ye young fE5ellas That C♯handle a gBun

 BewEare of night rBambling By the sAsus2etting of the sE5un

 And bAsus2eware of an aE5ccident That hC♯appened of lBate

 To yEoung Molly BBan And Asus2sad was her fE5ate

She was going to her uncles When a shower came on

She went under a green bush The shower to shun

Her white apron wrapped around her He took her for a swan

But a hush and sigh Was his own Molly Ban

He quickly ran to her And found she was dead

And there on her bosom, many soaked tears he shed

He ran home to his father With his gun in his hand

Saying "Father dear fatherI have shot Molly Ban"

Her white apron wrapped around her He took her for a swan

But a hush and a sigh 'Twas his own Molly Ban

He roamed near the place Where his true love was slain

He wept bitter tears But his cries were in vain

As he look on the lake A swan glided by

And the sun slowly sank In the gray of sky
