MASTER KILBY Trad : sung by Nic Jones |
|
In the heat of the day when the sun shines so freely I met Master Kilby so fine and so gay Well I pulled off me hat and I bowed to the ground And I said Master Kilby "Oh where are you bound?" "I'm bound for the west in hopes to find rest" "And in the arms of my dear Nancy I'll build a new nest" "And if I was the master of ten thousand pounds" "In bright gold and silver or in King William's crowns" "I would part with it all with me own heart so freely" "It's all for the sake of my charming Nancy" "She's the fairest of girls, she's the choice of my heart," "And her skin shines like silver, in every part" "Oh, I gave her some kisses, it was down by the seashore," "But still she lay asking, lay, asking for more." |
