fire + ice (ian read) - long lankin lyrics

Loading...

says the lord to his lady
as he mounted his horse
beware of long lankin who lives in the moss
says the lord to his lady
as he went on his way
beware of long lankin that lives in the hay

see the doors are all bolted
see the windows all pinned
and make sure there’s no crack for him to creep in
so the door’s were all bolted
and the windows were pinned
through a gap in the window long lankin crept in

where’s the lord of the household, cries long lankin
he’s a way up to london, says the false nurse to him
where’s the lady of the household, cries long lankin
she’s asleep in her chamber, says the false nurse to him

where’s the heir of the household, cries long lankin
he’s asleep in his cradle, says the false nurse to him
so we’ll pinch him and pr+ck him all over with a pin
to make his mother come down to him

so they pinched him and they pr+cked him all over with a pin
and the false nurse held a basin for the blood to run in
oh nurse how you slumber, oh nurse how you sleep
you leave my small baby to cry and to weep
oh i’ve dried him with milk
and i’ve given him a pat
come down my lady and look him in your lap
how dare i come down in the dead of night
when no candle is burning and no fire’s alight

but the lady came downstairs aware of no harm
lankin stood round to catch her in his arms
there’s blood in the kitchen
there’s blood in the wall
there’s blood in the parlor where the lady did fall
there’s blood in the parlor where the lady did fall
