To the queen of hearts he's the ace of sorrow
 He's here today, he's gone tomorrow
 Young men are plenty but sweethearts few
 If my love leave me, what shall I do?      

 Had I the store on yonder mountain
 With gold and silver, I had for counting
 I could not think for the heart of thee
 My eyes so full, I could not see

 My father left me both house and land 
 And servants many at my command
 At my commandment they ne'er shall be
 I'll forsake them all and go with thee

 I love my father, I love my mother
 I love my sister, I love my brother
 I love my friends and my relations too
 But I'll leave them all and go with you

 To the queen of hearts he's the ace of sorrow
 He's here today, he's gone tomorrow
 Young men are plenty but sweethearts few
 If my love leave me, what shall I do?
