Oh, my Billy, my constant Billy,
When shall I see my Billy again ?
When the fishes flies over the mountains,
Then you'll see your Billy again.

Once they said my lips were red.
Now they're scarlet (sic) pale ;
When I, like a silly girl,
Believ'd his flattering tale.
But he vow'd he'd never deceive me,
And so fondly I believ'd he.
While the stars and the moon
So sweetly shone
Over the willow tree.
