Lords, dukes, and ladies bow down to me And you are one of those branches three And you fair maid, and you fair maid, And you fair maid must come with me" "I'll give you gold and jewels rare I'll give you costly robes to wear I'll give you all my wealth in store If you'll let me live, if you'll let me live If you'll let me live a few years more" "Fair lady, lay your robes aside No longer glory in your pride And now, sweet maid, make no delay Your time is come, your time is come Your time is come and you must away" And not long after this fair maid died "Write on my tomb," the lady cried, "Here lies a poor distressed maid Whom Death now lately, whom Death now lately Whom Death now lately hath betrayed" @death Printed in the Penguin book of English folksongs filename[ DEATHLDY play.exe DEATHLDY SF ===DOCUMENT BOUNDARY Related Lyrics Random lyrics: Delaware River, Delias Gone, Demi Said To Me, Demon Lover, Denmark Anthem Text, Denmark Native Anthem Text, Der Steirische Brauch, Derby Ram, Derby Town, Deserter, Desolation, Desperado, Destroyer Song, Det aer Inte Laett Att Vara oedmjuk, Deutschland ?ber Alles, Devil And Feathery Wife, Devil And The Farmers Wife, Devilish Mary, Devils Nine Questions, Diana, Dicey Reilly, Dick Darby The Cobbler, Did She Mention My Name, Diddle Em Darby, Didnt He Ramble, Dido Bendigo, Dido Fido, Die Gute Kamerad, Die Sch?ne Burgenl?nderin, Diesel And Shale, Dillan Bay, Ding Dong Merrily On High, Dinkie Die, Dinkie Die Usmc Wwii Korea, Dinks Song, Director Of Admissions, Dirty Old Man, Dirty Old Town, Discovery, Dit is Een Lied Alleen Voor Kinderen, Divers And Lazarus, Dixie, Dixon And Johnson, Do Ye Ken John Peel, Do You Think That I Do Not Know, Doctor, Doctor In Fife, Doctors Lament, Dodger Song, Does The Spearmint Lose Its Flavor On The Bedpost, 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
