《Sir Patrick Spens(Live On ’John Peel’s Top Gear’， 1969)》歌词

[00:00:00] Sir Patrick Spens (帕特里克·斯彭斯先生) - Fairport Convention (公平港口大会)

[00:00:24] The King sits in Dunfirmline town

[00:00:27] Drinking of the blood-red wine

[00:00:30] Where can I get a steely skipper

[00:00:33] To sail this might boat of mine

[00:00:48] Then up there spoke a bonny boy

[00:00:51] Sitting at the King's right knee

[00:00:54] Sir Patrick Spens is the very best seaman

[00:00:57] That ever sailed upon the sea

[00:01:00] The King has written a broad letter

[00:01:03] And sealed it up with his own right hand

[00:01:06] Sending word unto Sir Patrick

[00:01:09] To come to him at his command

[00:01:18] An enemy then this must be

[00:01:21] Who told the lie concerning me

[00:01:24] For I was never a very good seaman

[00:01:28] Nor ever do intend to be

[00:01:42] Last night I saw the new moon clear

[00:01:46] With the old moon in her hair

[00:01:49] And that is a sign since we were born

[00:01:52] That means there'll be a deadly storm

[00:01:55] They had not sailed upon the deep a day

[00:01:58] A day but barely free

[00:02:01] When loud and boisterous blew the winds

[00:02:04] And loud and noisy blew the sea

[00:02:30] Then up there came a mermaiden

[00:02:33] A comb and glass all in her hand

[00:02:36] Here's to you my merry young men

[00:02:39] For you'll not see dry land again

[00:02:48] Long may my lady stand with a lantern in her hand

[00:02:55] Before she sees my bonny ship come

[00:02:58] Sailing homeward to dry land

[00:03:01] Forty miles off Aberdeen

[00:03:04] The waters fifty fathoms deep

[00:03:07] There lies good Sir Patrick Spens

[00:03:10] With the Scots lords at his feet
