《Tom Padget》歌词

[00:00:00] Tom Padget - Jon Boden

[00:00:00] Well of all the trades going

[00:00:04] 'Tis begging the tight

[00:00:06] I take great delight

[00:00:10] For my rent is all paid as

[00:00:14] When I lay my bags down for the night

[00:00:19] And my rent is all paid as

[00:00:22] When I take a long stick in my hand

[00:00:26] And at night I will please

[00:00:30] The fair maidens as best as I can

[00:00:36] When I walked all the day

[00:00:39] Till I came to some rich farm house

[00:00:44] And I knocked on the door

[00:00:47] Like some poor fool left lately without

[00:00:52] Without eating or drinking

[00:00:56] For twenty long hours and more

[00:01:00] And I said

[00:01:00] Kind madam will you pray for

[00:01:04] And remember the poor

[00:01:09] If it's alms that you want

[00:01:11] You will get them old man she said

[00:01:16] But before she gave pennies

[00:01:19] She ran to her mother upstairs crying

[00:01:23] Mammy oh Mammy

[00:01:25] There is a strange man in the hall

[00:01:29] Stay close to your chamber

[00:01:31] But for I fear he will ravish us all

[00:01:37] Well her mother did scuff her

[00:01:39] And called her a silly young fool

[00:01:44] To take any such notion against

[00:01:48] About a poor man at the door

[00:01:51] For his clothes were all ragged

[00:01:54] And his britches torn behind and before

[00:01:58] And his doldrums hung down

[00:02:02] A good fourteen long inches or more

[00:02:07] Tom Paget she said

[00:02:10] Why don't you go

[00:02:12] And work for your bread

[00:02:15] To some rich farmer

[00:02:17] And be decently clothed and fed

[00:02:21] But to plough and sow

[00:02:23] Madam I'm afraid I have but little skill

[00:02:28] But I'll plough the small furrow

[00:02:31] That lies at the foot of your hill

[00:02:36] Tom Paget she said

[00:02:39] If you and I could but agree

[00:02:44] Then I'd make you the steward

[00:02:48] Over all of my lands for to be

[00:02:53] And we'd eat at one table

[00:02:56] And we'd sleep on a soft bed of down

[00:03:02] If I could but have you

[00:03:04] Tom Paget of Killaloe town

[00:03:11] Well of all the trades going

[00:03:14] 'Tis begging that I take great delight

[00:03:20] For my rent is all paid as

[00:03:24] When I lay my bags down for the night

[00:03:29] And my rent is all paid as

[00:03:32] When I take a long stick in my hand

[00:03:37] And at night I will please

[00:03:40] The fair maidens as best as I can
