She went upstairs to make her bed
And not one word to her mother said
Her mother she went upstairs too
Saying: Daughter, oh daughter, what troubles you?
Oh mother, oh mother, I cannot tell
That butcher's boy I love so well
He courted me my life away
And now at home he

I warn you all you ladies fair that do wear red and brown
That you don't leave your father's house to run with a boy from town
For here am I, a lady fair, I did wear red and brown
And I did leave my father's house to run with a boy from town
He's mounted on his big white horse an

Lady Erskine sits in her bower
A sewing her silken seam
A bonnie sark for Chylde Owlet
As he gangs oot and in
His face was fair, lang was his hair
She's ca'd him to come nigh

For a' his lands and kye
Oh lady, hold your tongue for sha

To our sisters and brothers,and may they live long,
So lift up your glasses and join in this song
So we'll fill up your glasses and drink once again,
To peace on earth and good will amo

I have a sister, young Clifford, he said
A sister no man knows
She hath a color in her cheek
Like drops of blood in snow
Like drops of blood in snow
She hath a waist, a waist, a waist
Like my silver cane
And I would not for ten thousand worlds
Have King Henry know

Johnny he promised to marry me
I fear he's with some fair one and gone
There's something that ails him and I don't know what it is
But I'm weary of lying alone
Johnny he came at the appointed hour
Knocked on her window so slow
This young girl arose and hurried on her clot

Jellon Graeme sat in the wood, he whistled and he sang
He called for his servant boy who quickly to him ran
Hurry up, hurry up, my pretty little boy, as fast as ever you can
You must run for Rosy Flower before the day is gone
The boy buckled on his yellow belt and through the woo

Born in the middle of an afternoon
In a horse-drawn wagon on the old A5
The big twelve wheeler shook my bed
You can't stop here the policeman said
You better get born someplace else
So move along, get along, move along, get along,
Go, move, shift
Born in the tatie lif

Old Crumley
or I can do more work in a day than my wife can do in three
Old Crumley he began to swear
As the leaf grows on the tree, tree
That he could do as much work in a day
As his wife could do in three, three
That he could do as much work in a day
As his wife cou

In the town of Springhill, Nova Scotia
Down in the dark of the Cumberland Mine
there's blood on the coal and the miners lie
In the roads that never saw sun nor sky (2x)
In the town of Springhill, you don't sleep easy
Often the earth will tremble and roll
When the earth is

It's of an old and wealthy man
He had a daughter and her name was Ann
She were handsome, fine and tall
She had a loving face withal
Sing lady, lady, lady fair
Many a suitor had she there
A widow's son of low degree
Among them all, she fancied he

On Monday night he came to my door, and he made such a din.
``Get up, get up you darling girl, and let your lover come in.''
Well I got up and I let him in, and on me he did fall.
It was 5 o'clock in the morning before I got any sleep at all.
On Tuesday night he came to my door,

When she smiled we were there
As we'd always been
For children will believe
In fairy tales and once upon a time
When she went to the ball

We were there to see it all
Then we were with her
We were together with each other
We were never alone

When she cried

Whaur hae ye been, Peggy
Whaur hae ye been?
In the garden 'mong the gillyflooers
'Tween the hours o' twelve and ane
Ye were nae yoursel', Peggy
No' there your lane
Your faither saw ye in Jamie's arms
'Tween the hours o' twelve and ane
Whit though we were seen, mit
