Rose, Rose, Rose, Rose
Will I ever see thee wed?
I will marry at thy will,
sire, at thy will.
I won't be my father's Jack
I won't be my mother's Jill
I will be a fiddler's wife
And fiddle where I will
Ding dong, ding dong,
Wedding bells on an April morn.
Carve her name on a moss-covered stone,
On a moss-covered stone.
Come, come, come everyone,
Join us in our happy home.
Come celebrate the birth of our son,
Our first-born son.
Gloom, gloom, sadness and doom,
My Rose fell ill at the harvest moon.
Chills and fever tortured her so.
Lord why my Rose...
Ding dong, ding dong,
Funeral bells on a September morn,
Rose my love is dead and gone,
sire, dead and gone.
That's the whole song, but my camp only sings the first and third verse generally.

lol yeah it's a version of the song I know [or mine is a version of it lol]
Hey ho nobody's home
meat nor drink nor money have I none
still I will be very merry merry
hey ho nobody's home
rose rose rose red
shall I ever see they wed
I shall marry at they will
sire, at thy will
ding dong ding dong
wedding bells on an April morn
carve my name on a moss covered stone
moss covered stone
ding dong ding dong
funeral bells on a September morn
Rose oh rose she's dead and gone,
sire, dead and gone.
Aw poor bird,
take they flight
high above the sorrows
of this sad night
what a goodly thing
if the children of the world
could dwell together
in peace.
we sing a lot of songs like this, but this one is my favorite. As far as I know it's known as "Rose Red" or "The Peace Round"
