A hundred pounds we cannot give,
We cannot give, we cannot give, A hundred pounds we cannot give,
A nice young lady.
Then to prison she must go,
She must go, she must go, Then to prison she must go,
A nice young lady.
If she goes we'll go too,
We'll go too, we'll go too, If she goes we'll go too,
A nice young lady.
Round the meadows we will go,
We will go, we will go, Round the meadows we will go,
A nice young lady.
—Settle, Yorks. (Rev. W. S. Sykes).
O what has this poor prisoner done,
Poor prisoner done, poor prisoner done ?
O what has this poor prisoner done, So early in the morning ?
She stole my watch and lost my key,
Lost my key, lost my key, She stole my watch and lost my key,
So early in the morning.
How many pounds to set her free,
Set her free, set her free ? How many pounds to set her free,
So early in the morning ?
Five hundred pounds to set her free,
Set her free, set her free, Five hundred pounds to set her free,
So early in the morning. x |
