《Lady Gay》歌词

[00:00:00] Lady Gay - Joan Baez (琼·贝兹)

[00:00:15] There was a lady and a lady gay

[00:00:22] Of children she had three

[00:00:26] She sent them away to the North Country

[00:00:35] To learn their grammaree

[00:00:45] They'd not been gone but a very short time

[00:00:52] Scarcely three weeks and a day

[00:00:57] When death cruel death came hasting along

[00:01:06] And stole those babies away

[00:01:15] There is a King in Heaven she cried

[00:01:23] A King of third degree

[00:01:27] Send back send back my three little pages

[00:01:35] This night send them back to me

[00:01:45] She made a bed in the uppermost room

[00:01:52] On it she put a white sheet

[00:01:57] And over the top a golden spread

[00:02:05] That they much better might sleep

[00:02:13] Take it off take it off cried the older one

[00:02:20] Take it off take it off cried he

[00:02:25] For what's to become of this wide wicked world

[00:02:34] Since sin has first begun

[00:02:43] She set a table of linen fine

[00:02:50] On it she placed bread and wine

[00:02:55] Come eat come drink my three little pages

[00:03:03] Come eat come drink of mine

[00:03:13] We want none of your bread mother

[00:03:20] Neither do we want your wine

[00:03:25] For yonder stands our Savior deer

[00:03:33] To him we must resign

[00:03:42] Green grass is over our heads mother

[00:03:50] Cold clay is over our feet

[00:03:55] And every tear you shed for us

[00:04:03] It wets our winding sheet
