[A] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Oh, the heart is a fortune [D] of [A] all mankind
_ [E] They're [A] always controlled, _ they're [E] always confined
_ _ Controlled [A] by their parents [D] [A] until [E] they are wives
[Am] And enslaved to their husbands [D] the rest of [E] their lives
I _ _ _
[A] am a poor girl, [D] my fortune [A] is sad
_ [E] I've always [A] been courted [D]
[A] by the [E] wagoner's lad
He courted [A] me daily, _ by night [E] and by day
_ [A] Now his wagon is loaded [D] and he's going [E] away
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [A] Your parents don't like [D] me because [A] I am poor
They [E] say [A] I'm not worthy _ of [E] entering your door
But I work [A] for my living, all my [E] money's my own
[A] And if they don't like [D] me, they can leave [E] me alone _ _ _
_ [A] Your horses are hungry, [D] go feed [A] them some hay
Come [E] sit [A] down here by me as long [E] as you stay
My [A] horses ain't hungry, _ [D] [A] they won't [E] eat your _ hay
[A] So fare thee well, [D] darling, I'll feed [E] on my way _ _ _
