The Foggy Foggy Dew Lyrics - Marty Robbins

When I was a bachelor I lived all alone 

I worked at the weaver's trade 

And the only, only thing I did that was wrong 

Was to woo a fair young maid 

I wooed her in the winter time some of the summer too 

And the only, only thing I did that was wrong 

Was to keep her from the foggy, foggy dew 

One night she knelt down by my side 

When I was fast asleep 

She threw her arms around my neck 

And then began to weep 

She wept, she cried, she tore her hair 

Ah me, what could I do 

So all night long I held her in my arms 

To keep her from the foggy, foggy dew 

Again I am a bachelor and I live with my son 

We work at the weaver's trade 

And every single time that I look into his eyes 

He reminds me of the fair young maid 

He reminds me of the winter time 

Part of the summer too 

And the many, many times I held her in my arms 

To keep her from the foggy, foggy dew
