maddy prior & tim hart - a wager a wager lyrics

Loading...

a wager, a wager, a wager i will lay
i will lay you five hundred to one
that you don’t follow me onto yonder blooming tree
or a maiden you never shall return

so they both jogged along onto yonder blooming tree
the weather being very mild and warm
and he became quite weary, he sat down for to rest
then he fell fast asleep upon the ground

then nine times she walked the place all around
and nine times she walked it all round
and nine times she kissed his red and rosy cheeks
as he lie fast asleep upon the ground
then a ring from her finger she earnestly drew
and placed it on her true love’s right hand
saying “this shall be a token for my true love when he wakes
he will find that i have been but now i’m gone”

if i had been awake, love, when i was fast asleep
of you i would have had my will
oh you i would have k!lled and your blood i would have spilled
and the small birds should all have had their fill

be cheerful, be cheerful and do not repine
for naught is as clear as the sun
the money, the money, the money, it is mine
the wager i fairly have won
