bellowhead - betsy baker lyrics

Loading...

from noise and bustle far away
as i walked over each acre
i never knew what it was to sigh
’til i saw betsy baker

at church i met her dressed so neat
one sunday in hot weather
with love i found my heart did beat
as we sang psalms together

so modestly she turned her head
the while her voice did quaver
i thought if ever i did wed
t’would be with betsy baker

when church was over, out she went
but i did follow after
determined i would not be baulked
i spoke to betsy baker

but all my entreaties she did slight
and i was forced to leave her
i got not sleep at all that night
for love had brought a fever

from noise and bustle far away
and i walked over each acre
i never knew what it was to sigh
’til i saw betsy baker

at last she got acquainted
with a rambling mad play actor
he gammoned her to run away
and i lost betsy baker

but though i strive another way
my heart will never forsake her
i dream all night and think all day
of cruel betsy baker

from noise and bustle far away
and i walked over each acre
i never knew what it was to sigh
never knew what it was to sigh
never knew what it was to sigh
’til i saw betsy baker

ooooh
aaaah
ooooh
aaaah
ooooh
aaaah
ooooh
aaaah

from noise and bustle far away
and i walked over each acre
i never knew what it was to sigh
’til i saw betsy baker
