There was a fair maid lived in the north Oh, the rose and the linsey, oh She fell in love with her father's sir Down by the Greenwood side, oh
He courted her for years and a day Oh, the rose and the linsey, oh Till he the young girl did betray Down by the Greenwood side, oh
She leaned her back up against the thorn Oh, the rose and the linsey, oh And there she had, two little babes born Down by the Greenwood side, oh
She took her pen, night, clean and sharp Oh, the rose and the linsey, oh And pierced those two babes to the heart Down by the Greenwood side, oh
As she was walking her father's hall Oh, the rose and the linsey, oh She spied two boys playing ball Down by the Greenwood side, oh
She said oh babes, if thou were mine, Oh, the rose and the linsey, oh I'd dress you up in silk so fine Down by the Greenwood side, oh
Oh, mother dear, when we were dying, Oh, the rose and the linsey, oh You did not treat us then so fine Down by the Greenwood side, oh
She said oh babes tis you can tell Oh, the rose and the linsey, oh What kind of death I'll have to die? Down by the Greenwood side, oh
Seven years of fishing the blood Oh, the rose and the linsey, oh Seven years of hurt in the womb Down by the Greenwood side, oh
Seven years the town in the mourning bell Oh, the rose and the linsey, oh Seven years in the flames of hell Down by the Greenwood side, oh
Welcome well, come fishing the blood Oh, the rose and the linsey, oh Welcome well, convert in the womb Down by the Greenwood side, oh
Welcome town in the mourning bell Oh, the rose and the linsey, oh God save me, from the flames in hell Down by the Greenwood side, ohTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
