A gentleman was passing by And he stopped for a drink As he was dry
At the well below the valley oh Green grows the lily oh Right among the bushes oh
My pack is full unto the brim And if I were to stop I might fall in
If your true love was passing by You`d fill him a drink if he were dry
At the well below the valley oh Green grows the lily oh Right among the bushes oh
She swore by grass She swore by corn Her true love had never been born
At the well below the valley oh Green grows the lily oh Right among the bushes oh
He said: young girl You`re swearing wrong Six fine children you`ve born
At the well below the valley oh Green grows the lily oh Right among the bushes oh
If you be the man of noble fame You`ll tell to me the father of them
At the well below the valley oh Green grows the lily oh Right among the bushes oh
There`s two of them by your brother John Another two by your uncle Dan Another two by your father dear
At the well below the valley oh Green grows the lily oh Right among the bushes oh
If you be the man of noble fame You`ll tell to me what happened to them
At the well below the valley oh Green grows the lily oh Right among the bushes oh
There`s two buried `neath the kitchen door At the well below the valley oh Another two near the stable door At the well below the valley oh Another two just beside the well At the well below the valley oh All of them outside the graveyard wall
At the well below the valley oh Green grows the lily oh Right among the bushes oh
If you be the man of noble fame You`ll tell to me what`ll happen to me
At the well below the valley oh Green grows the lily oh Right among the bushes oh
You`ll be seven years of ringing a bell At the well below the valley oh You`ll be seven years of burning in hell At the well below the valley oh Green grows the lily oh Right among the bushes oh
I`ll be seven years of ringing a bell But the Lord above might save my soul From burning in hell At the well below the valley oh Green grows the lily oh Right among the bushes ohTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
