Lyrics

Are you going
to Scarborough Fair?
(parsely, sage,
rosemary and thyme)
Remember me to
one who lives there.
She once was
a true love of mine.

Tell her to make me
a cambric shirt
(parsley, sage,
rosemary, and thyme)
without no seams
nor needle work.
Then, she'll be
a true love of mine.

Tell her to buy me
an acre of land
(parsley, sage,
rosemary and thyme)
between the salt water
and the sea strand.
Then, she'll be
a true love of mine.

Tell her to reap it
with a sickle of leather
(parsley, sage,
rosemary, and thyme)
and gather it all
in a bunch of heather.
Then, she'll be
a true love of mine

Are you going
to Scarborough Fair?
(parsely, sage,
rosemary and thyme)
Remember me to
one who lives there.
She once was
a true love of mine.

If you have enjoyed listening to this music, please visit the Robin's Lockmith Services website. We had a Google Business Listing for many years. It went down on February 14, 2024. It looks like it will be impossible for me to recover the business listing. However, the Robin's Lockmith Services website is visible; sometimes above the business listing and sometimes right below it. Each time someone visits that website from anywhere in the world, search engines notice and it becomes more visible to people who are looking for a locksmith in Roswell, New Mexico. That helps us stay in business. Thank you.
