house and land - two sisters lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
there was an old lord by the northern sea
and he had daughters one+two+three

[chorus]
jury flower jen tree the rosemary
the jury hangs over the rosemary

[verse 2]
a young man came a+courting there
and he made choice of the youngest fair
[chorus]
jury flower jen tree the rosemary
the jury hangs over the rosemary

[verse 3]
he gave the youngest a beaver hat
and the eldest sister didn’t likе that

[chorus]
jury flower jen tree the rosеmary
the jury hangs over the rosemary

[verse 4]
and as they walked to the salty brim
the eldest pushed the youngest in

[chorus]
jury flower jen tree the rosemary
the jury hangs over the rosemary

[solo]

[bridge]
sister, o sister, lend me your hands
and you may have my house and land
sister, o sister, lend me your glove
and you may have my own true love

and i’ll now lend to you my hands
and i will have your house and land

and i’ll now lend to you my glove
and i will have your own true love

[verse 5]
down she sank and away she swam
into the miller’s pond she ran

the miller fished her out with his fishin’ hook
he fished that poor maid out of the brook

and off her fingers took five gold rings
and into the water pushed her again

[chorus]
jury flower jen tree the rosemary
the jury hangs over the rosemary

[verse 6]
the millers hung by the gallows high
and the eldest sister hung nearby
[chorus]
jury flower jen tree the rosemary
the jury hangs over the rosemary

[outro]
