《The Broomfield Hill》歌词

[00:00:00] The Broomfield Hill - A. L. Lloyd

[00:00:04] A wager a wager with you my pretty maid

[00:00:09] Here's five hundred pound to your ten

[00:00:13] That a maid you shall go to yon merry green broom

[00:00:17] But a maid you shall no more return

[00:00:22] A wager a wager with you kind sir

[00:00:25] With your five hundred pound to my ten

[00:00:30] That a maid i will go to yon merry green broom

[00:00:34] And a maid i will boldly return

[00:00:39] Now when that she came to this merry green broom

[00:00:42] Found her true love was fast in a sleep

[00:00:47] With a fine finished rose and a new suit of clothes

[00:00:51] And a bunch of green broom at his feet

[00:00:56] Then three time she went from the crown of his head

[00:01:00] And three times from the sole of his feet

[00:01:04] And three times she kissed his red rosy cheeks

[00:01:08] As he lay fast in a sleep

[00:01:13] Then she took a gold ring from off of her hand

[00:01:17] And put that on his right thumb

[00:01:21] And that was to let her true love to know

[00:01:25] That she had been there and was gone

[00:01:30] As soon as he awoke from his drowsy drowsy sleep

[00:01:34] And found his true love had been there and gone

[00:01:38] It was then he remembered upon the cost

[00:01:42] When he thought of the wager that he'd lost

[00:01:47] Three times he called for his horse and his man

[00:01:51] The horse he'd once bought so dear

[00:01:55] Saying why didn't you wake me out of my sleep

[00:01:59] When my lady my true love was here

[00:02:04] Three times did i call to you master me dear

[00:02:08] And three times did i blow with my horn

[00:02:13] But out of your sleep i couldn't you awake

[00:02:16] Till your lady your true love was gone

[00:02:21] Oh had i been awake when my true love was here

[00:02:25] Of her i would have my will

[00:02:30] If not the pretty birds in this merry green broom

[00:02:34] With her blood they should have all had their fill
