"I will sew it in the linings of my coat, then," says he "For I'm afraid on the highway it's robbed I might be" Says the man to himself, while drinking up his wine Says he to himself, "That money is mine" Oh the boy took his money and away rode he The highwayman followed after him also "You're well overtaken, young man," says he "How many mile further?" the robber did reply "Oh four miles further," the boy did reply "Then jump on my horseback and jump up behind ... So the boy jumped the horseback and away rode they Oh they rode till they came to some dark lane Says the robber unto Jack, "I must tell you plain Deliver up your money without any strife Or instantly I will end your life" Oh the boy thought it was no time to dispute From the linings of his coat all the money he pulled out From the linings of his coat all his money he pulled out And among the long grass he scattered it about Oh the robber he unlighted for to gather in his money But little did he think it was to his loss While gathering the money in his purse The boy jumped a-horseback and rode away with his horse "Oh," says the boy to the farmer, "I must tell you plain It's robbed I was by a highwayman And while he was gathering his money in his purse For to make you amends I brought home his horse" Oh the farmer he laughed whilst his two sides he hold "That's for a boy you was very bold And as for that villain you served him right And your name shall shine truly through Yorkshire bright" In the pocket of the saddle was there to be found The gold and the silver of five thousand pound Says the farmer to the boy, "I must tell you clear Three parts of the money you shall have for your share" "I will give you my youngest daughter to be your sweet wife Take her and live happy all the days of your life And my youngest daughter to be your sweet wife Take her and live happy all the days of your life" Child #283 from Newfoundland @outlaw filename[ CRAFTYBY SF ===DOCUMENT BOUNDARY Related Lyrics Random lyrics: Croppie Boy, Crossing The Border, Crow On The Cradle, Crows In The Garden, Crucificixion Of Christ, Cruel Brother, Cruel Mother, Cruel War, Cuba Native Anthem Text, Cuckoo, Cuckoo Shes A Pretty Bird, Cuckoos Nest, Cumberland And The Merrimac, Cumberlands Crew, Cunnla, Cupids Garden, Curfew Must Not Ring Tonight, Curragh Of Kildare, Cushie Butterfield, Cutty Wren, Cutty Wren2, Cyprus Anthem Text, Cyprus Native Anthem Text, Cyril Said It All Before, Czech Republic Native Anthem Text, Czechoslovakia Composers Round, Daddy Whats A Train, Daddy Youve Been On My Mind, Dahn The Plugole, Daily Growing Bonny Boy Is Young, Dalesmans Litany, Dame Durden, Damn Damn Damn The Filipinos, Dan Doo, Dancing At Whitsun, Danger Waters, Danny Boy, Danny Boy Other Version, Danville Girl, Darcy Farrow, Dark As The Dungeon, Dark British Foes, Dark Island, Dark Night Round, Darlin, Darling Corey, Darling Nelly Gray, Darwinian Theory, Das Lied Der Deutschen, Davy Crockett, Other Unknown song Lyrics 99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall Lyrics A Bird in a Gilded Cage Lyrics A Fenian Song Lyrics A Fool Such As I Lyrics A Friend Like You Lyrics A Hero of the Wrong War Lyrics A Horse Named Bill Lyrics A Hundred Years from Now Lyrics A Kangaroo Sat on an Oak Lyrics A Little Bit of Solitude Lyrics A Living Wage Lyrics ...Show All Other Artists Unknown Prophets Lyrics Unleashed Lyrics Unleashed Power Lyrics Unlimited Nation Lyrics Unlimited Sound Lyrics UNLOCO Lyrics Unlord Lyrics UNLV Lyrics Unni Wilhelmsen Lyrics Uno Svenningsson 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
