kate rusby – the cobbler’s daughter lyrics
i am a cobbler’s daughter
i’m thought of rude and mean
but a finer and a bonnier l-ss
you have never seen
i’ve plagued my father’s head
for my life i wouldn’t wed
and my mother’s in the prison cause of me
there was a handsome young man
who used to live near me
if i went out, if i went in
he’d always follow me
i’ll never rue the day
it happened as i say
i led him to my chamber room to see
i led him to my chamber
so we could be alone
and knowing that my mother
and my father were at home
he kissed me on the cheek
and i screamed till i was weak
my father came a running to the door
he’s jumped upon the young man
as i was standing by
but he brought his fist behind his head
and thumped him in the eye
then my mother heard the din
up the stairs she did begin
with a broom for a weapon she held high
out ran the young man
to the stairs straightway
but my mother she was waiting
like a raging bull i’d say
she’s h-t him on the head
the young man fell like lead
quite dead upon the floor he lay
