(McNabb)      Tell me fair young maiden   Will you take me as your own   For I must face this journey with a reason to come home   There's danger 'cross the deep salt sea   God knows what we may find   Armed with musket, pipe and drums   You'll still be on my mind      Chorus: As the wind blows, so the time goes   Take us where we long to be   My travelling chest   My good companion   Though I'm gone   Your heart belongs to me      Tell me fair young maiden   Will you take me as your own   There's danger at the factory gates   The picket line has grown   While you're sleeping in your bed   My love consider this   I'll make my weary way home   To the promise of your kiss   Chorus      I'm so ill at ease and weary when I'm down   Seem to loose those shackles   When you bring your love around   Strange as it seems, I'm lost for words   When I speak, I'm not heard, I'm aware you're waiting for me
