Nina Simone - Young Knight lyrics

Your rating:

  Joseph Hathaway, Charles Kingsley 

    

  Down deary down

There was a knight and he was young a-riding along the way Sir

And there he met a lady fair among the stacks of hay Sir

Down deary down



Quote he shall you and I, Lady among the grass lay down oh

And I will take a special care of the rumpling of your gown oh

So she told him

If you will go along with me into my father's hall Sir

You shall enjoy my maiden's head and my estate and all Sir

Down deary down



So he mounted her on a milk white steed himself upon another

And then they rid upon the road like sister and like brother

Down deary down down deary down

And when they came to father's home all moulded all about Sir

She stepped straight within the gate and shut the young man out Sir

Down deary down



Here is a pursue of gold she said take it for your pain Sir

And I will send my father's men to go home with you again Sir

And if you meet a lady fair as you go by the town Sir

You must not fear the dewy grass or

The rumpling grass of her gown Sir

Down deary down down deary down



And if you meet a lady gay as you go by the hill Sir

Here is the moral of the story

If you will not when you may you shall not when you will Sir
