《Sheath And Knife》歌词

[00:08:30] Sheath And Knife

[00:08:30] And the sun goes over the woods

[00:08:30] There was a sister and her brother

[00:08:30] Who did so loved one another

[00:08:30] O Sister, we'll gang tae the broom

[00:08:30] O Sister I would lay thee doon

[00:08:30] O Brother, alas, would you do so

[00:08:30] To my death I would sooner go

[00:08:30] And the folk they talk together

[00:08:30] About the lass is with bairn to her brother

[00:08:30] O brother you have done me ill

[00:08:30] And we will both burn on yonder hill

[00:08:30] O sister, you go to my father's stable

[00:08:30] And take two horses stout and able

[00:08:30] She's up on the white horse, he's on the black

[00:08:30] With his yew tree bow slung fast to his back

[00:08:30] They had not rode a mile but one

[00:08:30] When her pains they did come on

[00:08:30] I would give all my father's land

[00:08:30] For a good midwife at my command

[00:08:30] O brother, go to yon hill so high

[00:08:30] And take your bow, arrows and your good eye

[00:08:30] When you hear my loud, loud cry

[00:08:30] Bend your bow and let the arrows fly

[00:08:30] When he heard her loud, loud cry

[00:08:30] He bent his bow and let these arrows fly

[00:08:30] When he came at her side

[00:08:30] The babe was born and the lady died

[00:08:30] Then he took his new born son

[00:08:30] And took him into the arms of a milk woman

[00:08:30] He's cut himself a wound for sure

[00:08:30] He won't gang tae the broom any more

[00:08:30] O mother I have lost my knife

[00:08:30] I loved it better than my life

[00:08:30] But I have lost a better thing

[00:08:30] The bonnie sheath my knife was in

[00:08:30] And the sun goes over the woods
