The lyrics are taken from a poem by William Butler Yeats.
Down by the salley gardens
my love and I did meet;
She passed the salley gardens
with little snow-white feet.
She bid me take love easy,
as the leaves grow on the tree;
But I, being young and foolish,
with her would not agree.
In a field by the river
my love and I did stand,
And on my leaning shoulder
she laid her snow-white hand.
She bid me take life easy,
as the grass grows on the weirs;
But I was young and foolish,
and now am full of tears.

Over the hills we go
Come away me laddie-o
Over the hills today
Come away me laddie stay
On the sky west & crooked path
That leads you down to the sea
Over the hills we go
Come away me laddie-o
Come away me laddie-o
And we're sky west & crooked
Over the hills we go
On the sky west & crooked path
Come away me laddie-o
Come away me laddie-o
Run with me lassie run
Through the forest to the sea
Run with me lassie run
To a land where we'll be free
And we'll live wild & reckless
No slave, nor servant be
Run with me lassie run
To a land where we'll be free
To a land where we'll be free
And we're sky west & crooked
Over the hills we go
On the sky west & crooked path
Come away me laddie-o
Come away me laddie-o

The Blacksmith

A blacksmith courted me
Nine months and better
He fairly won my heart
Wrote me a letter
With his hammer in his hand
He looked quite clever
And if I was with my love
I'd live forever
Oh, where has my love gone?
With his cheeks like roses
And his good lack billycock on
Decked with primroses
I fear the burning sun
Shall shine and mar his beauty
And if I was with my love
I'd do my duty
Strange news has come to town
Strange news is carried
Strange news flies up and down
That my love is married
I wish them both great joy
'Though they cannot hear me
And may God reward them well
For the slighting of me
