hedy west - little margaret lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
little margaret sittin’ on her high hall chair
combin’ down her long yellow hair
when along come willie and his new wed bride
ridin’ up the road so near

[verse 2]
she threw down her ivory comb
drew back her long yellow hair
said, “i’ll go out and i’ll bid them farewell
nevermore to go there”

[verse 3]
it was all lately in the night
they was fast asleep
little margaret appeared all wrapped in white
standin’ at their bed feet

[verse 4]
“how do you like your snow white pillow?
how do you like your sheet?
how do you like that pretty little maiden
who’s lyin’ in your arms asleep?”

[verse 5]
“very well do i like my snow white pillow
well do i like my sheet
much better do i like that pretty little maiden
who’s standin’ at my bed feet”
[verse 6]
he called on his servin’ men to go
saddle up his dappled roan
rode to his father’s house that night
he knocked at the door all alone

[verse 7]
“is little margaret in her room?
is she in the hall?”
“little margaret’s in a cold, cold coffin
with her face turned to the wall”

[verse 8]
turn down, turn down them lily white sheets
be they ever so fine
and let me kiss them cold, cold lips
i know they’ll never kiss mine

[verse 9]
once he kissed those cold, cold hands
twice he kissed those cheeks
three times he kissed those cold, cold lips
and he fell in her arms asleep
