silly sisters - the barring of the door lyrics
it fell about the martinmas time
and a g+y time it was then o
that our good wife had puddings to make
and she boiled them in the pan o
the wind blew cold from east and north
and blew into the floor o
quoth our good man to our good wife
get up and bar the door o
my hand is in my hussyfskap
good man, as you may see o
and if it be barred this hundred years
it’ll not be barred by me o
they made the pact between the two
they made it firm and sure o
whoever should speak the very first word
should rise and bar the door o
then by and came two gentlemen
at twelve o’clock at night o
and they could see that in the house
no coal nor candle light o
oh, have we here a rich man’s house
or have we here a poor o?
but never a word would the old couple speak
for the barring of the door o
so first they ate the white puddings
and then they ate the black o
and muckle thought the good wife herself
but ne’er a word she spoke o
then one unto the other did say
here man, take ye my knife o
do ye take off the old man’s beard
and i’ll kiss his good wife o
but there’s no water in the house
and what shall we do then o?
what ails ye at the pudding broth
that boils in yonder pan o
oh up then started our good man
and an angry man was he o
well ya kissed me wife before me eyes
and scald me with pudding broth o
oh up then started our good wife
gave three skips on the floor o
good man ye have spake the very first word
get up and bar the door o
