I Could Not Find My Baby-O

I left my baby lying there
Lying there, lying there
I left my baby lying there
While I went to gather blaeberries-o

And when I came back again
Back again, back again
And when I came back again
Not a sign of baby-o

Oh, rovin, rovin, goriole gole
Goriole gole, goriole gole;
Oh, rovin, rovin, goriole gole
I could not find my baby-o

I followed the trail of the yellow fawn
Yellow fawn, yellow fawn
I followed the trail of the yellow fawn
But not a sign of baby-o

I followed the wee brown otter's track
Otter's track, otter's track
I followed the wee brown otter's track -
Where, oh where is baby-o?

Oh, rovin, rovin, goriole gole
Goriole gole, goriole gole;
Oh, rovin, rovin, goriole gole
I could not find my baby-o

I followed the path of the mist on the moor
Mist on the moor, mist on the moor
I followed the path of the mist on the moor
But not a sign of baby-o

I followed the trace of the moon on the snow
Moon on the snow, moon on the snow
I followed the trace of the moon on the snow
But still no sign of baby-o

Oh, rovin, rovin, goriole gole
Goriole gole, goriole gole;
Oh, rovin, rovin, goriole gole
I could not find my baby-o
