uncle sinner - little margaret lyrics

Loading...

margaret, sitting in her high hall chair
combin’ her long, yellow hair
she saw sweet william and his new maid bride
runnin’ up the road so near

she threw down her ivory comb
threw back her long yellow hair
said, “i’ll go down and bid him farewell
and nevermore go there.”

it was late in the night
they were fast asleep
little margaret appeared all dressed in white
a+standing at their bed+feet

said “how do you like your snow+white pillow
how do you like your sheet?
how do you like that pretty fair maid
who lays in your arms asleep?”

“well do i like my snow+white pillow
well do i like my sheet
much better that i like that pretty fair maid
who stands at my bed+feet.”

called his servant man to go
saddled the dapple roan
and he went to margaret’s house that night
and he knocked on the door alone
sayin’ “is lady margaret in her room
is she in the hall?”
“little margaret’s in the coal+black coffin
with her face turned toward the wall.”

unfold, unfold them snow white robes
be they ever so fine
“i wanna kiss those red ruby lips
i know they’ll never touch mine.”

three times he kissed her cold white breast
twice he kissed her cheek
and once he kissed her cold corpse lips
and he fell in her arms asleep

fell in her arms asleep
