[00:00:00] He's Young But He's Growing - Ashley Hutchings/Cara Dillon (卡拉·迪伦)/Jim Boyes/John Tams

[00:00:00] Oh father dear father

[00:00:04] You've done me to much wrong

[00:00:08] You've gone and got me married

[00:00:11] To a boy who is too young

[00:00:15] For he is only 16 years

[00:00:19] And I am 21

[00:00:22] Oh my darling boy is young

[00:00:26] But he's growing

[00:00:30] Oh daughter dear daughter

[00:00:34] It's you who have done wrong

[00:00:38] For you and he together

[00:00:41] Have gone and got a son

[00:00:45] And he must have a father

[00:00:49] When I am dead and gone

[00:00:52] Oh your darling boy is young

[00:00:56] But he's growing

[00:01:00] One day as I was walking

[00:01:04] Down by the college wall

[00:01:08] I saw the young men

[00:01:11] They were playing football

[00:01:15] My true love was there

[00:01:18] He was the finest of them all

[00:01:23] My darling boy is young

[00:01:26] But he's growing

[00:01:30] Another day I was walking

[00:01:34] Down by the college wall

[00:01:38] I saw the pusher

[00:01:41] He was making his call

[00:01:45] My true love was there

[00:01:48] He was the palest of them all

[00:01:52] Oh the dealer put an end

[00:01:56] To his growing

[00:02:31] At the age of sixteen years married man

[00:02:38] And at the age of seventeen

[00:02:41] The father of a son

[00:02:45] At the age of sixteen years

[00:02:49] The grass grew over him

[00:02:53] Of the dealer put an end

[00:02:56] To his growing

[00:03:00] Oh the springtime is past

[00:03:04] And the summer's coming on

[00:03:07] It's earring beads and bangles

[00:03:11] The young girls have put on

[00:03:15] Once I had a true love

[00:03:19] But now I have got none

[00:03:22] But I 'll watch over

[00:03:24] His son

[00:03:26] While he's growing
