[Verse 1] Down by the riverside quietly wandering I met my Willie the pride of the west In his arms I would lie for all the joy he’d bring He laid his golden hair down my breast. [Chorus] Roll your leg over mine Willie my weaver - O I your arms let me twine Willie my dear. Weave to your heart’s content Willie my weaver - O Weave till you yarn is spent Willie my dear. [Verse 2] He is my weaver-O He weaves my woes a-way He is my shuttle and I am his loom Down in some shady glen or in some quiet place He does his weaving wherever there’s room. [Chorus] Roll your leg over mine Willie my weaver - O I your arms let me twine Willie my dear. Weave to your heart’s content Willie my weaver - O Weave till you yarn is spent Willie my dear. [Verse 3] I love my Willie and he is my candy - O His weaving fills me completely with sighs I long to go again out with my Willie - O And watch him weave with the sun in my eyes. [Chorus] Roll your leg over mine Willie my weaver - O I your arms let me twine Willie my dear. Weave to your heart’s content Willie my weaver - O Weave till you yarn is spent Willie my dear.

À propos de la chanson

Dans cette chanson, l'autrice évoque une belle rencontre au bord de la rivière avec son bien-aimé, un homme au charme irrésistible. Elle décrit des moments de tendresse, où elle se laisse emporter par la douceur de leurs échanges et de ses gestes délicats. La métaphore du tissage revient souvent, symbolisant l’union et l’harmonie entre eux, alors qu’ils passent du temps ensemble dans des lieux paisibles, profitant de la nature. L’amour qu’elle ressent pour lui lui apporte réconfort et joie, et elle aspire à revivre ces instants enchanteurs sous le soleil.
