Lyrics Judy Collins

Judy Collins

Shule Aroon

Shule, shule, shule aroon

Shule the agaragar, shule the coon

Shule, shule, shule aroon

I blink up anyone, should tie me, oh

Here I sit on buttermilk hill

Weep I will and weep my fill

Every tear would turn a mill

Johnny is gone for a soldier

Shule, shule, shule aroon

Shule the agaragar, shule the coon

Shule, shule, shule aroon

I blink up anyone, should tie me, oh

I'll sell my flax, sell my meal

Sell my only spinnin' wheel

Buy my love, a sword of steel

Johnny's gone for a soldier

Shule, shule, shule aroon

Shule the agaragar, shule the coon

Shule, shule, shule aroon

I blink up anyone, should tie me, oh

Loved him, oh, I loved him so

Broke my heart to see him go

Only time can heal my woe

Johnny's gone for a soldier

Shule, shule, shule aroon

Shule the agaragar, shule the coon

Shule, shule, shule aroon

I blink up anyone, should tie me, oh

I sold my flax and my meal

Sold my only spinnin' wheel

Now he's dead upon the field

Johnny's gone for a soldier

Shule, shule, shule aroon

Shule the agaragar, shule the coon

Shule, shule, shule aroon

I blink up anyone, should tie me, oh
