Judy Collins Lark in the Morning song lyrics

The lark in the morning, she rises off her nest

And goes up in the air with the dew on her breast

Like a jolly ploughboy, she whistles and she sings

And comes home in the evening with the dew on her wings

Roger the ploughboy is a bonny blade

He goes whistlin' and singin' through yonder lawn shade

He met with dark-eyed Susan, she's handsome I declare

And he bought her rose of ribbon for to roll 'round her hair

He met with dark-eyed Susan, she's handsome I declare

And she's far more enticin' than the birds in the air
