Ballad Of Geraldine - Donovan
Oh, I was born with the name Geraldine

With hair coal black as a raven.
I travelled my life without a care,
Ah, but all my love I was savin'.

Oh, the winds blew high
and the trees did sway,

Not much from life was I askin'.

Till I met someone to give all my love,
All my love, so long an' lasting.

Oh, good were the parts
we played in our game

And a long ways off was tomorrow.
But my love was a rambler
and restless as the sea,
And in the tide came sorrow.
Oh, a child of the night
is goin' to be born,

I can't explain my confusion.
Is my love thinkin' to marry me at all
Or of the freedom
he thinks he'll be losin'?

I sit with my friends
in the gay crowded room,
My friends they're smokin' and a-talkin'.

But it all seems so empty,
my love is not there,
So I'll go into the streets a-walkin'.
My baby is a-growin'
as a-growin' it must,
If I were to lose it,
it would grieve me.
My love is so helpless
and I'm wonderin' what to do.
Oh, how I yearn to help him.
Oh, we could go to
the land of your choice
Where the false shame won't
come knockin' at our door.
I've a feeling in my heart
and it's crushing all my hopes,

I think I'm gonna be hurt some more,

Why, I was born with the name Geraldine,

With hair coal black as a raven.
I travelled my life without a care,
Ah, but all my love I was savin'.
