As I walked out one morning All in the month of May Down by a flowery garden I carelessly did stray I overheard a young maid In sorrow did complain, All for her absent lover Who plows the raging main. I boldly stepped up to her And put her in surprise. I know she did not know me I being in disguise. I says, "Me charming creature, My joy, my hearts delight, How far have you to travel This dark and dreary night?" "I'm in search of a faithless young man. Johnny is his name. And along the Banks of Claudy I'm told be does remain."
