gilderoy - shirley collins lyrics

Loading...

now gilderoy was a bonny boy and he would knots of ribbons wear
he’s pulled off his scarlet coat, he gartered below his knee
he was beloved by the ladies so g*y and he was such a rakish boy
he is my sovereign heart’s delight, my handsome, bold young gilderoy

young gilderoy and i was born all in one town together
and at the age of seventeen years we courted one each other
our dads and our mums they both did agree and crowned with mirth and joy
to think that i should marry with my handsome, bold young gilderoy

now gilderoy and i walked out all in the fields together
he took me round the waist so small and down we went together
and when he had done all a man could do, he rose and kissed his joy
he is my sovereign heart’s delight, my handsome, bold young gilderoy

what a pity it is a man should hang for stealing of a women where
he had neither robbed a house nor land and he stole neither horse nor deer
for he was beloved by the old and the young and he was such a rakish boy
he was my sovereign heart’s delight, my handsome, bold young gilderoy

now gilderoy, they’ve hung him high and a funeral for him we shall have
with a sword and a pistol by my side i’ll guard my true love to his grave
for he was beloved by the young and the old and he was such a rakish boy
he was my sovereign heart’s delight, my handsome, bold young gilderoy
