jimmy aldridge & sid goldsmith – willie o’ the winsbury كلمات اغاني

the king has been a prisoner, and a prisoner long in spain
and willie o the winsbury, has lain with his daughter jane

what ails you, what ails you, my daughter jane? what makes you pale and wan?
oh, have you had any sore sickness, or else been sleeping with a man?

i have not had any sore sickness, nor yet been sleeping with a man
it is for you, my father dear, for biding so long in spain

cast off, cast off your berry_brown gown, stand naked upon the stone
that i may know you by your shape whether you be a maiden or none

so she’s cast off her berry_brown gown, stood naked upon the stone
her apr_n was low, her haunches round, her skin was pale and wan

oh, was it with a lord or a duke or a knight, or a man of birth and fame?
or was it with one of my serving men that’s lately come out of spain?

it wasn’t with a lord, nor a duke, nor a knight, or a man of birth and fame
but it was with willie of winsbury i could bide no longer alone

and the king has called on his merry men all, by one, by two, and by three
saying “fetch me this willie of winsbury, for hanged he shall be”

but when he came the king before, he was clad all in red silk
his hair was like the strands of gold his skin was white as milk
“it is no wonder” said the king, “that my daughter’s love you did win
if i was a woman, as i am a man, my bedfellow you would have been

and will you marry my daughter jane, by the truth of your right hand?
oh, will you marry my daughter jane? i’ll make you the lord of my land”

“and yes, i’ll marry your daughter jane, by the truth of my right hand
yes i’ll marry your daughter jane, but i’ll not be the lord of your land”

and he’s mounted her on a milk_white steed and himself on a dapple grey
and he’s made her the lady of as much land as she’ll ride in a long summer’s day
