Falsehearted Chicken Lyrics - But This Chicken Proved Falsehearted - Sam Amidon

Oh the moon shines bright and the stars they go by 

and his fair miss she were all alone 'lone 'lone. 

There's something in the way that causes him to stay 

while his fair miss she were all alone 'lone 'lone. 

His fair miss she were all alone 

Her true love come at last he come very fast 

come on crippling though the plains. 

His fair miss arose and she drew on her clothes 

for the world come around let her in in in. 

Well come around let her in 

Oh my pretty chicken my sweet growing chicken, 

Do not grow before day. 

Then I'll make you the wings of a beamin' yellow gold 

then I'll come over silver so gay gay gay 

I'll come over silver so gay gay gay 

But this chicken grew falsehearted 

he growed on her too soon. 

Her true love went away before the break of day 

and he rode by the light of the moon moon moon, 

and he rode by the light of the moon 

Saddled up her milk white steed 

all sobered up all grey. 

She rode until the edge of the world 

and until the break of day. 

And until the end of her day 

My true true love my sweet turtle dove 

when will I see you again? 

When the sun and the moon shine in a north sea 

and the sky shall no more rain rain rain, 

and the sky shall no more rain. 

Oh the moon shines bright and the stars they go by 

and his fair miss she were all alone.
