Once on a time there lived a man,
He lived way down in a fair
Blow ye winds up morning, blow
Blow ye winds up morning,
Peter fell in love all with a nice young girl
The first three letters of her name were
Blow ye winds of morning,
Blow ye winds of morning,
to wed, her father did say no,
Blow ye winds of morning, blow ye winds, I
Blow ye winds of morning,
Peter heard of this sad news, he knew not
He'd have a mind to jump into the
Blow ye winds of morning,
Blow ye winds of morning,
But he was caught and scalped by
Blow ye winds of morning, blow ye winds,
Blow ye winds of morning,
news, she knew not what to say.
She wept and wept and wept,
but yet her poor sweet life away.
Blow ye winds up morning,
Blow ye winds up morning, blow, blow, blow.
