rosie ann
Fair rosie sits all by the door,weeping and making moan.When along there came herfather, saying what ails yourosie ann? Oh pity, myfather, for good reason do i cry.There is a child by my brotherJohn that lies between my sides.Her brother john was standingBy and Rosies cries he heard.He's gone straight to his sister'sside and cursed her with thesewords. Oh you have told ourfather dear, how I did make youcry. Now I must draw mysharpened sword and on it youmust die. What blood is thatupon your sword son, John come tell me?Oh mother dear it is my horse as youcan plainly see.Your horses blood is not so red sonJohn come tell to me.Oh I have slain fair Rosieand cut her body in three.What will you tell your fatherdear, son John come tell to me?Letras de cancionesI will take his finest sailing shipand sail accross the sea.And when will you come home againson John come tell to me?When sun and moon meet inthe sky and that will never be.
