[00:00:00] The Maid Of The Sweet Brown Knowe - Tommy Maken

[00:00:19] Come all you lads and lasses and listen to me a while

[00:00:23] And I'm sing for you a verse or two

[00:00:25] Twill 'cause you all to smile

[00:00:27] It's all about a fell young man

[00:00:29] I'm going to tell you now

[00:00:31] Oh you lately came a-courting number with

[00:00:34] The maid of the sweet brown knowe

[00:00:36] Said he my pretty fair maid

[00:00:38] If you come along with me

[00:00:40] We are both go after togeter

[00:00:42] Banns and married we will be

[00:00:45] We will join our hands in wedlock

[00:00:47] Banns by meeting to you now

[00:00:49] And I'll do my best endeavours for

[00:00:51] The maid of the sweet brown knowe

[00:00:54] This fell and fickle young thing

[00:00:56] She knew not what to say

[00:00:58] Her eyes they shone like silver bright

[00:01:00] And merrily did play

[00:01:03] She said young man you love so due

[00:01:05] For I'm not ready now

[00:01:07] And I'll spend another season at

[00:01:09] The foot of the sweet brown knowe

[00:01:12] Says he my pretty fair maid oh can you answer say

[00:01:16] Look down in yonder valley where my verdant crops do grow

[00:01:20] Look down in yonder valley at my horses and my plough

[00:01:25] Oh answer their daily labour for

[00:01:27] The maid of the sweet brown knowe

[00:01:29] If they're at their daily labour kind sir it's not for me

[00:01:34] I've heard of your behaviour I have kind sir said she

[00:01:38] There is an inn where you call in I hear the people say

[00:01:42] Where you rap and call and pay for all

[00:01:45] And go home at the break of day

[00:02:04] If I rap and call and pay for all the money it is my own

[00:02:08] And I'll never spend your fortune for

[00:02:11] I hear you have got none

[00:02:13] You thought you had my poor heart

[00:02:15] Broken talking with me now

[00:02:17] But I'll leave you where I found you at

[00:02:19] The foot of the sweet brown knowe
