Ill take you where The grass grows green On the banks of the bitter reeds She pickd up her wee little babe And kisses, gave it three saying, stay right here my darling little one Keep your papa company Now they had not been On the ship two weeks I swear it was not three When his true love began To weep and moan And she wept most bitterly are you weeping For my silver and gold Are you weeping for my store or are You weeping for that house carpenter That you neer shall see no more? a curse on the sailor she swore A curse, a curse she swore You robbed me of my sweet little babe That I never shall see no more! Well, they had not been On the ship three weeks I swear it was not four Until there came a leak in the ship And she sank To rise no more Related Lyrics Random lyrics: Golden Boy, Gulf Of Araby, Gun Shy, Henry Darger, House Carpenter, How Youve Grown, I Hope That I Dont Fall In Love With You, I May Know The Word, Im Not Gonna Beg, Im Not Gonna Beg, In The Ghetto, Jealousy, Just Cant Last, Just Cant Last, Kind & Generous, Kind Generous, King Of May, Last Goodbye, Life is Sweet, Lowlands of Holland, Motherland, My Skin, Not in This Life, Ode To Billy Joe, Old Gospel Melody, One Fine Day, Ophelia, Owensboro, Poor Wayfaring Stranger, Put the Law on You, River, Saint Judas, Sally Ann, San Andreas Fault, Seven Years, Soldier, Soldier, Son Of A Preacher Man, Space Oddity, Sympathy For The Devil, Take A Look, Tell Yourself, Thank You, The Ballad Of Henry Darger, The Gulf Of Araby, The Letter, The Living, The Lowlands Of Holland, The Worst Thing, Thick As Thieves, This House Is on Fire, Other Natalie Merchant song Lyrics (From) Both Sides Now Lyrics After The Gold Rush Lyrics All I Want Lyrics Baby I Love You Lyrics Beloved Wife Lyrics Break Your Heart Lyrics Build a Levee Lyrics Bury Me Under The Weeping Willow Lyrics But Not For Me Lyrics Carnival Lyrics ...Show All Other Artists Natalie Merchant F/ Karen Peris Lyrics Natalie Pastrana Lyrics Natalise Lyrics NATAS Lyrics Natasa Theodoridou Lyrics Natasha Bedingfield Lyrics Natasha Hagen Lyrics Natasha St Lyrics Natasha St-pierre Lyrics Natasha St. Pierre Lyrics All lyrics are property and copyright of their owners and are strictly for educational purposes only. lyricstrue.net Copyright © 2005-2007 All Rights Reserved., , Privacy policy
