《Sweet England》歌词

[00:00:00] Sweet England - Shirley Collins

[00:00:15] As I was a walking one morning in spring

[00:00:21] To hear the larks whistle and the gully birds sing

[00:00:28] I heard a sweet maiden a making a moan

[00:00:34] But alas I'm a stranger a long way from home

[00:00:49] I came from Sweet England with my mother and dad

[00:00:56] And I thought in america all could be had

[00:01:02] Of gold and of silver and acres galore

[00:01:08] And I'll never meet hunger and poverty more

[00:01:21] But alas for Sweet England my father is dead

[00:01:27] And my mother can learn but there's little for bread

[00:01:33] And I dream as I gaze o'er the far distant

[00:01:37] Main

[00:01:39] For a fine ship to take me to england again

[00:01:54] And the aunt's in the country and she loves me

[00:01:59] Amain

[00:02:01] She look at and love me as I where her

[00:02:07] And nurse her in sickness and tend to her pain

[00:02:13] And thank god I was back in Sweet England again

[00:02:19] And it's so to be back in Sweet England again
