Hares On The Mountain

Hares On The Mountain Oh Sally oh dead it's you I'd be kissing Oh Sally my dear it's you I'd be kissing She smiled and replied "You don't know what you're missing." Oh Sally my dear I wish I could wed you Oh Sally my dear I wish I could bed you She smiled and replied "Then you'd say I misled you" If all of the young men were hares on the mountain If all of the young men were hares on the mountain How many young girls would take guns and go hunting If the young men sang like blackbirds and thrushes If the young men sang like blackbirds and thrushes How many young girls would go beating the bushes If the young men were fish in the water If the young men were fish in the water How many young girls would undress and dive after If the young men were rushes a growing If the young men were rushes a growing How many young girls would take scythes and go mowing But the young men are given to frisking and fooling But the young men are given to frisking and fooling So stick to your studies and stick to your schooling
