vernon dalhart - barbara allen كلمات أغنية

[verse 1]
it was in the merry month of may
when flowers were a_bloomin’
sweet willie on his death bed lay
for the love of barbara allen
he sent his servant to the town
the town where she did dwell in
sayin’, “master dear has sent me here
if your name be barbara allen”

[verse 2]
then slowly, slowly, she got up
and slowly she went to him
and all she said when she got there
“young man, i think you’re dyin’
oh, don’t you remember the other day
when we were in the tavern?
you drank a health to the ladies there
and slighted barbara allen”

[verse 3]
he turned his face unto the wall
he turned his back upon her
“adieu, adieu to all my friends
be kind to barbara allen”
she went on through and through the town
she heard his death bells ringin’
and every stroke they seemed to say
“oh cruel barbara allen”
[verse 4]
she looked to the east, she looked to the west
she saw his corpse a_comin’
“oh, set him down for me,” she cried
“that i may gaze upon him”
the more she looked, the more she grieved
she bursted out to cryin’
sayin’, “pick me up and carry me home
for i feel like i am dyin'”

[verse 5]
they buried willie in the old church yard
and barbara in the new one
and from willie’s grave there grew a rose
and from barbara’s, a green briar
they grew, they grew to the old church wall
and could not grow any higher
and there they tied in a true love’s knot
the rosewood and the briar
