Cherry Ripe - 1830

James Pitt-Payne, London and Ian Cousins, Opera Australia - 28 Jan 2002

Cherry ripe, cherry ripe, ripe, I cry;
Full and fair ones come and buy.
Cherry ripe, cherry ripe, ripe, I cry;
Full and fair ones come and buy.

If so be you ask me where
They do grow I answer there,
Where my Julia's lips do smile,
There's the land of cherry Isle.
There's the land of cherry Isle.
Cherry ripe, cherry ripe, ripe, I cry;
Full and fair ones come and buy.
Cherry ripe, cherry ripe, ripe, I cry;
Full and fair ones come and buy.
Where my Julia's lips do smile,
There's the land of cherry Isle.
There plantations fully shew,
All the year where cherries grow
All the year where cherries grow
Cherry ripe, cherry ripe, ripe, I cry;
Full and fair ones come and buy.
Full and fair ones come and buy.
