And all the trees are green | B |
And every goose a swan lad | A |
And every lass a queen | B |
Then hey for boot and horse lad | A |
And round the world away | C |
Young blood must have its course lad | A |
And every dog his day | C |

When all the world is old lad | A |
And all the trees are brown | D |
And all the sport is stale lad | A |
And all the wheels run down | D |

God grant you find one face there | E |
You loved when all was young | F |
