Happy Love 147
2 "O father, have you brought the ball, And come to set me free ?
Or have you come to see me die Beneath the gallows tree?"
3 "I have not brought the golden ball, Nor come to set you free;
But I have come to see you die Beneath the gallows tree."
4 "O hangman, hangman, hold your ropes,
0 hold them for a while;
1 think I see my mother's face, A many, a many a mile.
5 "O mother, have you brought the ball, And come to set me free?
Or have you come to see me die Beneath the gallows tree?"
6 "I have not brought the golden ball, Nor come to set you free;
But I have come to see you die Beneath the gallows tree."
7 "O hangman, hangman, hold your ropes,
0 hold them for a while;
1 think I see my brother's face, A many, a many a mile.
8 "O brother, have you brought the ball, And come to set me free?
Or have you come to see me die Beneath the gallows tree?"
9 "I have not brought the golden ball, Nor come to set you free;
But I have come to see you die Beneath the gallows tree."
10 "O hangman, hangman, hold your ropes,
0 hold them for a while;
1 think I see my sister's face, A many, a many a mile. |
