jim moray - william of barbary lyrics

Loading...

as i looked over the castle
to see what i could see
there i beheld my father’s ship
come sailing all on the sea

[jane’s father]
“what’s the matter my daughter jane?
you’re looking so pale and worn
have you had any long sickness
nor yet been sleeping with a man?”

[jane]
“no i’ve not had any long sickness
nor lain with any young man
but i’ve been sick, oh sick to my heart
since you’ve been so long in spain
since you’ve been so long in spain”

[jane’s father]
“was it with a duke or n0ble knight
or was it some gentleman
or was it by chance some rakish young lad
who’s just returned from spain?”

[jane]
“well it wasn’t with a duke or n0ble knight
or evеn some gentleman
but i’vе been courted by young william
who’s one of your serving men
who’s one of your serving men”
[jane’s father]
“may you marry my daughter jane
and take her by the hand
and you may sup all the time with me
be the heir to all my land”

[young william]
“yes i’ll marry your daughter jane
and take her by the hand
and i will sup all the time with you
but never for all your land”

“i have houses and i have land
and money at my command
and had it not been for your daughter jane
i’d never have been your man
i’d never have been your servings man”
