Send me Back Home
04:39

That restless feeling
Brings no good meaning
It leaves you reeling
Shaken all the way to your bones
And I see her shadow
It makes me rattled
But I'm to weary to ramble
So send me back home
And the cards she's dealing
Ain't all they're seeming
And the web she's weaving
Won't be seen until she wants it shown
And I hear her footsteps
Cos it's hard to forget
Now I've filled your pockets
So send me back home
And the way she's teasing
Though you might find pleasing
But she'll have you squealing
When she sinks you just like a stone
And I hear her calling
She's got you crawling
I give you fair warning
Now send me back home
She's started reeling
She's got you kneeling
And she'll have you stealing
Anything she wants for her own
And I see her sometimes
Though you might think most times
But I say this time is my time
So send me back home
And you may be believing
That she won't be leaving
But my friend you're dreaming
If you think you can call her your own
And you'll see her shadow
It'll make you rattled
But I'm to weary to ramble
So send me back home

To an Old Friend
03:19
|
|||
|
When the breeze all stops its breezing
And the river bed runs dry
And the only water falling's
The tear drops in your eye
And you've got no place to run to
And no place else to hide
Does it come as any comfort
It won't come as much surprise
Well I see many people
Hanging round your garden gate
You ask them what time it is
And they'll reply to late
And you'll realise how you became
Just what you used to hate
And you'll turn your back on me
And you resign yourself to fate
And the air starts getting colder
And the sun will cease to shine
And you wish you hadn't tried so hard
To break this heart of mine
You'll take none of it for granted
Now you've run out of time
Til you lay down your weary head
And leave this world behind
When I've sung to you my story
And I've sung to you my song
And the money that you saved
For your rainy days is gone
I'll try to reconcile
And do my best to carry on
Though it strikes me pretty strange still
How two rights can make a wrong

Whenever I Look Back
01:58
|

|
Whenever I look back
And remember when she was my own
You'd think that I might care
She's with someone else somewhere
But it don't even matter to me at all
Sometimes I think the night will shatter
Sometimes I think the sky must fall
But if I tell everyone else
Then I might convince myself
That she don't mean anything to me at all
If only I could find the time
And the way of explaining to her how
And what I wouldn't give
For her sweet company
Though I can't get close to her at all

Over the Hills
04:25
|

|
Sad news sad news, comes to me where I sleep
Over the hills, calls me away
For me to go, and to leave you here
Soon before dawn, so I must bid you goodbye
[Refrain] And it's won for the man, another for his son
And it's won and again and again
If you must go, know that I'll wait for you
Over the hills, till you return
If you are to leave, before the night is through
I won't keep you long, for you must be on your way
[Refrain]
Just think of me, and dry your eyes my dear
Now and again, while I am gone
And know that I'll, think of you my love
And when I do, then I will be by your side
[Refrain]
Let us sing, and let us dance again
When you return, to me again
I'll wait day by day, watching for you my love
As I am bound, for I will see you again
[Refrain]
But if I go, bury me there my dear
Over the hills, where I am home
Time marches on, on our side my love
And when it's done, then we will defeat the years
[Refrain]

House Carpenter

Well met well met my own true love
Well met well met cried he
I've just returned from the salt salt sea
All for the love of thee
I could have married a kings daughter there
She would have married me
But I have forsaken my kings daughter there
All for the love of thee
Well if you could have married a kings daughter there
I'm sure you're the one to blame
For I am married to a house carpenter
And find him a fine young man
Will you forsake your house carpenter
And come away with me
I'll take you where the grass grows green
On the banks of the salt salt sea
Well if I should forsake my house carpenter
And go away with thee
What have you to maintain my own
Keep me from poverty
Six ships six ships all out on sea
Seven more upon dry land
One hundred and ten brave sailor men
To be at your command
Well she picked up her own wee babe
Gave him kisses three
Saying take good care of my house carpenter
Keep him good company
Well they'd not been gone but about two weeks
I'm sure it was not three
When this fair lady began to weep
She wept most bitterly
Why do you weep my fair young maid
Weep for your golden store
I do weep for my own wee babe
Never I shall see no more
Well they'd not been gone but about three weeks
I'm sure it was not four
Our gallant ship sprang a leak and sank
Never to rise no more
One time around spun our gallant ship
Two times around spun she
Three times around spun our gallant ship
And sank to the bottom of the sea
What hills what hills are those my love
That rise so fair and high
Those are the hills of heaven my love
But not for you or I
What hills what hills are those my love
They look as dark as night
Those are the hills of hellfire my love
Where you and I shall unite

Maria Maria I do beg of you
Don't leave me here don't make me blue
I know your anger is justified
Your at the end of your tether
But Maria oh sweet Maria
I need you now more than ever
Maria Maria why can't you see
My love for you is true as can be
I know my mind it often walks
It changes with the weather
But Maria oh sweet Maria
I need you now more than ever
Maria Maria was it by design
I see a reflection I know isn't mine
To be held in your arms again
Is all I do endeavour
Cos Maria oh dear Maria
I need you now more than ever
Maria Maria I'm down on my knees
Just one more minute of your precious time please
I can feel it deep in my heart
I know we're to be together
Yes Maria oh sweet Maria
I need you now more than ever

As I went out one evening hmm
To watch the sips sail by
I heard a sweet voice singing hmm
But the singer I did not spy
Her song was fast and flashing hmm
Cut sharp as how lighting sliced the sky
But her voice was soft as candlelight hmm
And echoed of times gone by
I called out to the singer hmm
But no more could I hear the song she'd sung
I waited for her answer hmm
But answer came there none
I searched along the harbour hmm
For the voice that I'd heard for so long
But as I watched and I waited hmm
I knew she must have gone
And so now every evening hmm
Since I first heard that voice sing
I go to the harbour hmm
But I ain't ever heard her again

He Was a Friend of Mine

He was a friend of mine, he was a friend of mine
Every time I think about him now I can't keep from crying
Cos he was a friend of mine
He died on the road, he died on the road
He never had that much money to pay his room and board
Yes and he was a friend of mine
I stole away and cried, I stole away and cried
Cos I never had that much money and I never been satisfied
Yes and he was a friend of mine
He never done no wrong, he never done no wrong
A thousand miles from home and he never harmed no one
Yes and he was a friend of mine
He was a friend of mine, he was a friend of mine
When I think about him now, I can't keep from crying
Cos he was a friend of mine

There was an old woman lived on the sea shore
Bow and balance to me
There was an old woman lived on the sea shore
Her number of daughters one two three four

There was a young man come courting on down
Bow and balance to me

Bow and balance to me
Well some time she sank and some time she swam
Until she came to the old mill damn
[Refrain]
The miller he got out his fishing hook
Bow and balance to me
The miller he got out his fishing hook
Fished the maiden out of the brook
[Refrain]
Oh miller oh miller here's five gold rings
Bow and balance to me
Oh miller oh miller here's five gold rigs
To push my sister back in again

And pushed the maiden in again

The Lowlands of Holland
04:00
|
|||
|
The love that I have chosen I therewith be content
And the salt sea shall be frozen before that I repent
Repent it shall I never until the day I dee
But the lowlands of Holland has twined my love and me
My love lies in the salt sea and I am on the side
It's enough to break a young things heart that lately was a bride
That lately was a bonny bride with pleasure in her e'e
But the lowlands of Holland has twined my love and me
My love has built a bonny ship and he set her on the sea
With seven score good marinas to bear her company
But there's three score sunk m'lads and three score dead at sea
And the lowlands of Holland has twined my love and me
My love has built another ship and set her on the sea
With nane but twenty marinas for to bring her home to me
But the weary wind began to rise the sea began to roll
And my love and his bonny ship turned with the shins about
There shall nae a quiff come on my head nor comb come in my hair
There shall neither coal or candlelight shine in my bower mair
And neither will I marry until the day I dee
For I never had a love but one and he's drowned in the sea
On hold your tongue my daughter dear be still and be content
There's men enough in Galloway you need not so lament
There's men enough in Galloway alas there's none for me
For I never had a love but one and he's drowned in the sea
