Sheila Chandra – Blacksmith lyrics
Oh a blacksmith courted me nine months and better
He fairly won my heart wrote me a letter
With his hammer in his hand he looked so clever
And if I were with my love I would live forever
Strange news has come to town
Strange news is carried
Strange news flies up and down that my love is married
Oh I wish them both joy much joy
Thou they don't hear me
And may God reward him well for the slighting of me
Do you remember when you lay beside me?
And you said you'd marry me and never deign me
If I said I'd marry you twas only for to try you
Let you bring your witness love and I'll not deign you
Oh witness have I none save God almighty
And may he reward you well for this slighting of me
Her lips grew pale and warm
It made her poor heart tremble
For to think she loved but one
And he proved deceitful
Oh a blacksmith courted me nine months and better
He fairly won my heart wrote me a letter
With his hammer in his hand he looked so clever
And if I were with my love...
And if I were with my love I would live forever
He fairly won my heart wrote me a letter
With his hammer in his hand he looked so clever
And if I were with my love I would live forever
Strange news has come to town
Strange news is carried
Strange news flies up and down that my love is married
Oh I wish them both joy much joy
Thou they don't hear me
And may God reward him well for the slighting of me
Do you remember when you lay beside me?
And you said you'd marry me and never deign me
If I said I'd marry you twas only for to try you
Let you bring your witness love and I'll not deign you
Oh witness have I none save God almighty
And may he reward you well for this slighting of me
Her lips grew pale and warm
It made her poor heart tremble
For to think she loved but one
And he proved deceitful
Oh a blacksmith courted me nine months and better
He fairly won my heart wrote me a letter
With his hammer in his hand he looked so clever
And if I were with my love...
And if I were with my love I would live forever
