Sandy Denny - The Hexhamshire Lass lyrics

Your rating:

Away with the buff and the blue, and away with the cap and feather;

I want to see my lass who lives in Hexhamshire.



Chorus 

Off to the Sadie Skey and over the moss and the mire

I want to see my lass who lives in Hexhamshire 

Her father loves her well, her mother loves her dearer;

I love her better than them both but, man, I can't get near her.



(Chorus)



If only I could be lying there aside her

While I watched my dear my arms would be denied her.



(Chorus)



Her skin is like the silk and her hair is like the silver

Her breast are deep but full, they'll fall when I get near her



(Chorus)



Of this love of mine, of this love I am weary;

Sleep I can't get none for thinking of my dearie



(Chorus)



Away with the parson's shilling and away with the cap and feather

I want to see my lass who lives in Hexhamshire



(Chorus)



(4 instrumental verses)



(Repeat first verse.)
