Daughter's Lament
Come in come in my father dear and spend this hour with me For I have a meal and a very fine meal I fixed it up for thee thee I fixed it up for thee No I ain't coming in, no I ain't coming in To spend this hour with thee For I have to go down in the mines I'll return this night to thee thee I'll return this night to thee It's she got up her arrow and her bow Her arrow and her string And its she went down to the forest deep And sweetly she did sing sing And sweetly she did sing But spoke up, spoke a mockingjay. Up from a willow tree Saying you had a father in the mines Who's gone this day from thee thee Who's gone this day from thee Whoa be whoa be oh mockingjay Whoa be whoa be to thee I'll send an arrow through your heart For to bring such news to me me Letras de cancionesFor to bring such news to me But spoke up, spoke that mockingjay Don't waste your time with me Go home and mind that pretty little girl Her father no more to see see Her father no more to see It's she went home to her house that night That house so cold and mean And she held her sister close to her side And never more did sing sing And never more did sing From Letras Mania
