she is a goddess.

Nancy and even Bill Staines do this as something close to a dance pace which is out of keeping with the sentiment of the song. Liam Clancy treated it as a slow ballad which makes the song much more believable.

@swvacollings290 It's not so uncommon. It is called the "smart girl fetish" although in the case of those of us fans of literate types, we could say "poet girl fetish". It is all the more powerful if the lady is pretty and endearing. Nancy is both, and we cannot dismiss her wonderful album covers, the early ones adorable "The Last of the True Believers" an example). Compare her wonderful artistic face to her idol the southern writer Carson McCullers, coy, intelligent, smart, always so smart.

O the thought of offending her in the slightest would kill me, but I must declare that to the thinking man, she's one of the sexiest and most mesmerizing women to walk this Earth. O forgive me , Luv!
