《Barbara Allen》歌词

[00:02:53] In scarlet town where I was born

[00:02:53] There was a fair maid dwelling

[00:02:53] Made many a youth cry well a day

[00:02:53] Her name was Barbara Allen

[00:02:53] It was in the merry month of May

[00:02:53] When green buds they were swelling

[00:02:53] Sweet william came from the west country

[00:02:53] And he courted Barbara Allen

[00:02:53] He sent his servant unto her

[00:02:53] To the place where she was dwelling

[00:02:53] Said my master's sick bids me call for you

[00:02:53] If your name be Barbara Allen

[00:02:53] Well slowly slowly got she up

[00:02:53] And slowly went she nigh him

[00:02:53] But all she said as she passed his bed

[00:02:53] Young man I think you're dying

[00:02:53] Then lightly tripped she down the stairs

[00:02:53] She heard those church bells tolling

[00:02:53] And each bell seemed to say as it tolled

[00:02:53] Hard hearted Barbara Allen

[00:02:53] O mother mother go make my bed

[00:02:53] And make it long and narrow

[00:02:53] Sweet william died for me today

[00:02:53] I'll die for him tomorrow

[00:02:53] They buried Barbara in the old church yard

[00:02:53] They buried sweet william beside her

[00:02:53] Out of his grave grew a red red rose

[00:02:53] And out of hers a briar

[00:02:53] They grew and grew up the old church wall

[00:02:53] Till they could grow no higher

[00:02:53] And at the top twined a lover's knot

[00:02:53] The red rose and the briar
