[00:00:00] The Baron of Brackley - Connie Dover

[00:00:00] Composed by：traditional

[00:00:21] Down deeside rode inverey a-whistlin' and playin'

[00:00:26] He alit at brave Brackley's gates ere it was dawn

[00:00:32] Cries Baron of Brackley it's are you within

[00:00:38] There are sharp swords at your gates would make your blood spin

[00:00:44] Up spoke the proud Baron from the castle wall

[00:00:49] Have you come inverey for to plunder my hall

[00:00:55] Or if ye be gentlemen alight and come in

[00:01:00] If you drink of my wine you'll no make my blood spin

[00:01:10] Up spake his lady at his back where she lay

[00:01:14] She heard the cows lowing o'er hill and o'er brae

[00:01:21] Oh rise up oh Brackley and turn back your kye

[00:01:26] The lads of drumwarren are driving them by

[00:01:59] How can I rise up and go out again

[00:02:04] For if I have one man he surely has ten

[00:02:10] Rise up oh Brackley and be not afraid

[00:02:15] They're but hired young brigands with belted up plaids

[00:02:24] She called on her ladies to come to her hand

[00:02:29] Saying bring your rocks lassies we will them command

[00:02:35] If I had a husband as what I hae nane

[00:02:40] He'd no lie in his bed and see his kye ta'en

[00:02:50] Arise Peggy gordon and bring me my gun

[00:02:54] Oh I will go out but I'll never come in

[00:03:01] Then kiss me my Peggy I'll no longer stay

[00:03:06] Oh I will go out and meet young inverey

[00:03:15] When Brackley was ready and stood in the close

[00:03:20] A bonnier gallant ne'er mounted a horse

[00:03:26] What'll come of your lady and your bonny young son

[00:03:31] What'll come of them all when Brackley is gone

[00:03:40] Strike dogs cries inverey and fight till you're slain

[00:03:45] For we are four-hundred ye are but four men

[00:03:52] Strike you proud boaster your honor is gone

[00:03:57] Your lands we will plunder your castle we'll burn

[00:04:03] I'll stand here cries Brackley do you think I would fly

[00:04:08] But here I will fight and here I will die

[00:04:15] First they killed ane and then they killed twa

[00:04:19] And then they killed Brackley the flower of them all

[00:04:44] Came ye by the castle and was ye in there

[00:04:48] Saw ye Peggy gordon a-tearing her hair

[00:04:55] As I came by Brackley as I came by there

[00:05:00] I saw pretty Peggy a-braiding her hair

[00:05:06] She was ranting and dancing and singing for joy

[00:05:11] She swore that ere night she would feast inverey

[00:05:18] She ate with drank with him welcomed him in

[00:05:23] Was kind to the man that had slain her Baron

[00:05:32] Oh fie on ye lady why did ye deceive

[00:05:37] Ye opened the gates to the false inverey

[00:05:43] There's grief in the kitchen there's mirth in the hall

[00:05:48] For the Baron of Brackley is dead and awa'
