《The Lily Of The West》歌词

[00:00:00] The Lily of the West-Altan

[00:00:10] I just came down from Lover's Well,

[00:00:19] Some pleasure there to find,

[00:00:25] A handsome girl from Michigan

[00:00:31] So pleasing to my mind.

[00:00:36] Her rosey cheeks and sparking eyes,

[00:00:43] This arrow's pierced my breast,

[00:00:48] And they called her handsome Mary,

[00:00:58] the Lily of the West.

[00:01:03] I courted her for many's a day,

[00:01:12] Her love I thought to gain.

[00:01:18] But too soon she slighted me,

[00:01:24] Which caused me grief and pain.

[00:01:30] She stole away my liberty

[00:01:36] And deprived me of my rest.

[00:01:42] And they called her handsome Mary,

[00:01:51] the Lily of the West.

[00:02:18] As I roved out one evening,

[00:02:27] Down by a riverside

[00:02:33] I spied a lord of a high degree

[00:02:39] Conversing to my bride.

[00:02:45] He sang a song so merrily

[00:02:51] Whilst I was so repressed.

[00:02:56] And he sang to handsome Mary,

[00:03:06] the Lily of the West.

[00:03:11] I rushed up to my rival,

[00:03:20] A dagger in my hand,

[00:03:26] I tore her from his arms

[00:03:32] And I boldly did him stab.

[00:03:38] Being mad with desperation,

[00:03:44] My dagger pierced his breast,

[00:03:50] And I was betrayed by Mary,

[00:03:59] The Lily of the West.
