lady margaret - david mcwilliams lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
as i walked among the green fields one evening in may
i spied the fairest damsels all at their sport and play
such beauty as beguiled me i ne’er did see again
the one was lady margaret, the other evelainne

[verse 2]
i passed beside their garden as i daily went my way
from work among the cattle where i daily earned my pay
and as the sun was setting low their laughter ran like wine
and madе the young men tremblе, made men lose their minds

[verse 3]
my father often told me never enter through their gate
for many young men had before, none did know their fate
they say each has the devil’s eye, and none to mercy show
who enter in their garden where no earthly man should go

[verse 4]
they say they loved a soldier who did take of both in turn
when he had been satisfied he both of them did spurn
and they placed a curse upon him ’til they drained his youth away
now, on every man who enters they take their vengeance to this day

[verse 5]
though for three score year’s i’ve lived here with my border and my gun
their laughter still comes tumbling at the setting of the sun
and their beauty still beguiles me as they play their children’s games
the one is lady margaret, the other evelainne
[outro]
as i walked among the green fields one evening in may
