|
A lady was walking on a midsummer's day |
|
The birds they were whistling so merrily and gay |
|
When along came a white steed in the finest array |
|
And it carried a young man these words he did say |
|
Come live by the great moon |
|
That rules the strong tide |
|
Climb up on my horse love |
|
And be my sweet bride |
|
I bid you good morning, this young man did say |
|
And where might you be going on such a nice day |
|
I'm walking to view sir the bonny blue sea |
|
For it's all |
|
I have left now that means much to me |
|
Chorus If that's all you love now, come riding with me |
|
You'll live in my castle deep under the sea |
|
You'll sleep in my gold bed, my fine silken sheets |
|
And have gifts of great beauty from all that you meet |
|
Chorus She's up in the saddle and away they did ride |
|
The horse skipped and danced over waves on the tide |
|
Now she's only remembered by this story |
|
I tell |
