Lambs In The Greenfield lyrics
the lambs on the greenfield/ they sport and they play and many strawberries grow around the salt sea.
and many strawberries grow round the salt sea and many a ship sails the ocean
the bride and bride's party to church they did go
the bride she rode foremost . she bares the best show.
oh I followed after / with my heart filled with woe
to see my love wed to another
The next place I saw her was on the way home
I ran on before them not knowing where to go
says I my wee lassie I'll be by your side although you are wed to another
Stop, stop said the groom til I speak a word
or then shed your life on the point of my sword
for courting too slowly you lost this fair maiden
so be gone now you'll never enjoy her
now make now my grave, both large, wide and deep
and sprinkle it all with flowers so sweet
and lay me down in it to make now my last sleep
for that the best way to forget her.
