The Handweaver And The Factory Maid - Meridian[00:00:00]
I am a hand weaver to my trade[00:00:04]
I fell in love with a factory maid[00:00:08]
And if I could brought her favour gain[00:00:12]
I'd sit beside her and weave by steam[00:00:16]
My father to me scornful said[00:00:22]
How could you fancy a factory maid[00:00:26]
When you could have girls both fine and gay[00:00:29]
All dressed like unto the Queen of May[00:00:33]
As for your fine girls I don't care[00:00:39]
If I could but enjoy my dear[00:00:43]
I'd sit in the factory all the day[00:00:47]
And she and[00:00:51]
I'd be our shuttles in play[00:00:52]
I went to my love's bedroom door[00:01:10]
Where I had oft times been before[00:01:14]
But I could not speak nor yet get in[00:01:18]
The pleasant bed where my love lay in[00:01:22]
How can you call it a pleasant bed[00:01:25]
When naught lies there but a factory maid[00:01:29]
A factory maid although she be[00:01:33]
Blessed be the man who enjoys she[00:01:37]
Pleasant thoughts ran though my mind[00:01:43]
When I turned down her sheets so fine[00:01:47]
And see her two breasts standing so[00:01:51]
Like two white hills all covered in snow[00:01:55]
Where are the girls[00:02:00]
I'll tell you plain[00:02:02]
The girls have all gone to weave by steam[00:02:04]
And if you find them[00:02:08]
You must rise at dawn[00:02:10]
And trudge to the mill in the early morn[00:02:12]
I am a hand weaver to my trade[00:02:53]
I fell in love with a factory maid[00:02:57]
And if I could but her favour gain[00:03:00]
I'd sit beside her and weave by steam[00:03:04]
