As I was out walking and rambling one day

I spied a fair couple a coming my way

One was a lady as fair as could be

And the other was a cowboy and a brave one was he

He said where are you going my pretty fair maid

Just down by the river just down by the shade

Just down by the river just down by the spring

To see the wild rippling waters and hear the nightingale sing

Well they hadn't been there but an hour or so

Til he drew from his satchel a fiddle and bow

He tuned his old fiddle all on the high string

And he played this tune over and over again

Then said the cowboy I should have been gone

No no said the pretty maid Just play one more song

I'd rather hear the fiddle just played on one string

Than see the wild rippling waters and hear the nightingale sing
