steeleye span - corbies lyrics
as i was walking all alane
i heard twa corbies makin’ mane
and one ontae the other did say
where shall we gang and dine the day
where shall we gang and dine the day
in behind yon oul fail dyk-
i wot there lies a new slain knight
and naebody kens that he lies there
but his hawk and his hound and his lady fair
his hawk and his hound and his lady fair
his hawk is tae the hunting gane
his hound to fetch the wild fowl hane
his lady has taken another mate
so we can make our dinner sweet
we can make our dinner sweet
you can sit on his white breast bone
and i’ll pick out his bonny blue e’en
and with a lock of his yellow hair
we’ll theek our nest when it grows bare
we’ll theek our nest when it grows bare
and many’s a one for him makes mane
naebody kens where he has gane
through his white bones when they grow bare
the wind shall blow forever mare
the wind shall blow forever mare
(theek=feather our nest)
