all ye maidens hear me warning   never trade the hearts of men   they will crush you like a sparrow   leaving you to never mend   they will vow to always love you   swear no love but yours will do   then they'll leave you for another   break your little heart in two      (chours)   little sparrow,little sparrow   precious fragile little thing   little sparrow,little sparrow   flies sp high and feels no pain      if i were a little sparrow   o'er these mountains i would fly   i would find him,i would find him   and look into his lying eyes   i would flutter all around him   on my little sparrow wings   i would ask him,i would ask him   why he let me love in vain      i am not a little sparrow   i am just a broken dream   of a cold,false-hearted lover   and his evil cunning scheme]      (repeat chours)
