P stands for paddy


As I walked out on a bright May morn'
To take a pleasant walk
I sat down on an old stone wall
To hear two lovers talk
To hear what they might say, my friend
Hear what they might say
So I might learn a little about love
Before I go away

"Don't sit down beside me", he said
"Not now or any time
I hear you have another lad
Your heart's no longer mine"
"Your heart's no longer mine", he said
"Your heart's no longer mine
I hear you have another lad
Your heart's no longer mine"

"P" stands for Paddy, I suppose
"J" for my love John
"W" stands for the false Willy-O
And Johnny's the fairest man
Johnny's the fairest man, he said
Johnny's the fairest man
And I don't care what anybody says
For Johnny's the fairest man

"I'll go and climb a tall fine tree
Up to a wild bird's nest
When I'll come down I'll care some more
About the girl I love the best
The girl I love best", he said
"The girl that I love best
When I'll come down I'll care some more
About the girl I love the best"

"P" stands for Paddy, I suppose
"J" for my love John
"W" stands for the false Willy-O
And Johnny's the fairest man
Johnny's the fairest man, he said
Johnny's the fairest man
And I don't care what anybody says
For Johnny's the fairest man

As I walked out on a bright May morn'
To take a pleasant walk
I sat down on an old stone wall
To hear two lovers talk
To hear what they might say, my friend
Hear what they might say
So I might learn a little about love
Before I go away

"P" stands for Paddy, I suppose
"J" for my love John
"W" stands for the false Willy-O
And Johnny's the fairest man
Johnny's the fairest man, he said
Johnny's the fairest man
And I don't care what anybody says
For Johnny's the fairest man

"P"
"J"
"W"
And Johnny's the fairest man
Johnny's the fairest man, he said
Johnny's the fairest man
And I don't care what anybody says
For Johnny's the fairest man

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Fiddler's Green è un gruppo musicale tedesco di Erlangen, formatosi nel 1990. Si specializza in Irish speedfolk indipendente, caratterizzato da ritmi veloci e melodie tradizionali irlandesi reinterpretate con uno stile moderno. Il loro primo concerto sotto il nome Fiddler's Green si tenne al Newcomer-Festival di Erlangen a novembre del 1990, dove la band ottenne il secondo posto. Nel 1992 pubblicarono il loro album d'esordio omonimo, una miscela di brani live e in studio, sia tradizionali che originali. L'album fu pubblicato sulla loro etichetta indipendente, Deaf Shepherd Recordings. Nonostante abbiano avuto un contratto con un'etichetta discografica maggiore, hanno scelto di tornare all'indipendenza. Tra i brani più rappresentativi del gruppo figurano "The Wild Rover", "Whiskey in the Jar" e "Seven Drunken Nights".
