dave douglas - barbara allen lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
’twas in the merry month of may
when all the flowers were blooming
sweet william green on his death bed lay
for the love of barbara allen

[verse 2]
he sent his servant unto her
he sent him to her dwelling
saying, “master’s sick, he calls for you
if your name be barbara allen”

[verse 3]
so slowly, slowly she got up
and slowly when she met him
but all she said when she passed his bed
“young man, i think you’re dying”

[verse 4]
do you remember in yonder’s town
in yonder’s town i drank in
you raised your glass to the womеn all around
but you slighted barbara allen

[verse 4]
oh mother, mothеr make my bed
oh make it long and narrow
sweet william died for me today
and i’ll die for him tomorrow
[verse 5]
they buried her in the old churchyard
they buried him beside her
and out his grave there lay a rose
and out of her’s, a briar
