Rose of Aberdeen

[Verse 1: Paul Simon]
I'm a rambler, I'm a gambler
I'm a long way from my home
If you people don't like me
I can make out on my own

[Verse 2: Paul Simon]
'Cause it's dark, and it's rainin'
And the moon gives no light
And my pony can hardly travel
On this darkened road at night

[Verse 3: Paul Simon]
You know once I had a true love
Lord, her age was just sixteen
She was the flower of Belton
And the rose of Aberdeen

[Verse 4: Paul Simon & Art Garfunkel]
But her parents did not like me
And now she feels much the same
If I'm writ on in your diary
Well, blot out my name

[Verse 5: Paul Simon & Art Garfunke]
'Cause there's changes in the ocean
And there's changes in the sea
And there's changes in my own true love
But there ain't no change in me
