The Young Night |
| Down dearie down\nThere was a knight and he was young and riding along the wayside\nAnd there he met a lady fair among the stacks of hay, sir\nDown dearie down\ndoodoodoodoodoodoo\nWell here shall you and I lady among the grass lay down\nAnd I will take a special care of the rumpling of your gown\nohohohohohohoh\nSo she told him\nIf you would go along with me into my father’s home sir\nYou shall enjoy my maiden’s head and my estate and all sir\nDown dearie down\nSo he mounted her on a milk white steed himself upon another\nAnd then they rid upon the road like sister and like brother\ndown dearie down\ndown dearie down\nand when they came to father’s home all molded all about sir\nshe stepped but straight within the gates and shut the young man out sir\nDown dearie down\nHere is a purse of gold she said take it for your pain sir\nAnd I will send my father’s men to go home with you again sir\nAnd if you meeet a lady fair as you go by the town sir\nYou must not fear the dewy grass or the rumpling of her gown sir\nDown dearie down\nDearie down\nAnd if you meet a lady gay as you go by the hill sir\nHere is the moral of the story\nIf you will not win you may you shall not win you will sir |
