Song | Lord Gregory |
Artist | Alasdair Roberts |
Album | The Crook Of My Arm |
作曲 : Traditional | |
I am a poor young girl | |
That's straight from Callander. | |
I'm in search of Lord Gregory-- | |
Pray God I find him! | |
The rain beats my yellow locks | |
And the dew wets me still, | |
My babe is cold in my arms-- | |
Lord Gregory, let me in!" | |
"Lord Gregory's not here and | |
Henceforth can't be seen, | |
For he's gone to bonny Scotland | |
For to bring home his new queen. | |
So leave now these windows | |
And likewise this hall, | |
For it's deep in the sea | |
You should hide your downfall." | |
"Who'll shoe my babe's little feet? | |
Who'll put gloves on her hand? | |
Who will tie my babe's middle | |
With a long linen band? | |
Who'll comb my babe's yellow hair | |
With an ivory comb? | |
Who will be my babe's father | |
Till Lord Gregory comes home? | |
Do you remember, love Gregory, | |
That night in Callander | |
Where we changed pocket handkerchiefs, | |
And me against my will? | |
For yours was pure linen, love, | |
And mine but coarse cloth; | |
For yours cost a guinea, love, | |
And mine but one groat. | |
Do you remember, love Gregory, | |
That night in Callander | |
Where we changed rings on our fingers, | |
And me against my will? | |
For yours was pure silver, love, | |
And mine was but tin; | |
For yours cost a guinea, love, | |
And mine but one cent." | |
"And my curse on you, Mother, | |
My curse being sore! | |
Sure, I dreamed the girl I love | |
came a-knocking at my door." | |
"Sleep down you foolish son, | |
Sleep down and sleep on: | |
For it's long ago that weary girl | |
Lies drownin' in the sea." | |
"Well go saddle me the black horse, | |
The brown, and the gray; | |
Go saddle me the best horse | |
In my stable to-day! | |
And I'll range over mountains, | |
Over valleys so wide, | |
Till I find the girl I love | |
And I'll lay by her side." |
