The May Day Carol (Remastered) - Jean Ritchie
I've been a wandering all the night
And the best part of the day
I'm returning back home again
I will bring you a branch of May
A branch of May
I will bring you my love
Here at your door I stand
It's nothing but a sprout
But it's well budded out
By the work of the Lord's own hand
In my pocket I've hold a purse
Tied up with a silver string
All that I am is a little silver
To line it well within
My song is done and I must be gone
I can no longer stay
God bless you all both great and small
And send you a joyful May
