(when i was no but) sweet sixteen - june tabor & oysterband lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
when i was no but sweet sixteen
with beauty just a*blooming*o
it’s little, little did i think
at nineteen i’d be greeting*o

[chorus]
for the ploughboy lads, they’re gey braw lads
but they’re false and they’re deceiving*o
for they’ll take your all and gang awa
and leave their lasses grieving*o

[verse 2]
oh, i was fond of company
and gave the ploughboys freedom*o
to kiss and clap me in the dark
when all my friends were sleeping*o

[chorus]
for the ploughboy lads, they’re gey braw lads
but they’re false and they’re deceiving*o
for they’ll take your all and they’ll gang awa
and leave their lasses grieving*o

[verse 3]
but if i had kent that i now ken
and taken my mother’s bidding*o
oh, i wouldn’t be sitting by our fireside
crying hushabye my bairnie*o
[chorus]
for the ploughboy lads, they’re gey braw lads
but they’re false and they’re deceiving*o
for they’ll take your all and they’ll gang awa
and leave their lasses grieving*o

[verse 4]
and it’s hushaba for i’m your ma
but the lord knows who’s your daddy*o
so it’s girls beware and you take care
of the ploughboys in the gloaming*o

[chorus]
for the ploughboy lads they’re gey braw lads
but they’re false and they’re deceiving*o
for they’ll take your all, they’ll gang awa
and leave their lasses grieving*o
