Bonny Birdy - Steeleye Span[00:00:00]
O it's of a knight on a summer's night[00:00:19]
Was riding o'er the lee diddle[00:00:21]
There he spied a bonny bird[00:00:23]

Oh gin it were day[00:00:31]

O make hast make hast ye gentle knight[00:00:36]

But a fore ye ha your bow well bent[00:01:28]
An a' your arrows yore diddle[00:01:30]

O ware was ye gotten and ware was ye clacked[00:01:45]
Pray bonny bird tell me[00:01:47]

In till a holly tree[00:01:51]
An a gentleman came riding by[00:01:53]
An fare my nest he hurry me[00:01:55]

Oh gin it were day[00:02:05]
And gin I were away[00:02:06]

Then with good white bread an farrow cow milk[00:02:12]
He bade her feet me aft[00:02:15]
An ga her a little wee simmer dale wanna[00:02:16]
To ding me sidle and soft[00:02:18]
But with good white bread an farrow cow milk[00:02:20]

Wow for the day[00:02:28]
An gin it for the day[00:02:30]
For he that's in bed[00:02:32]
With another man's wife[00:02:33]
It's time he was away diddle[00:02:34]
Time he was away[00:02:36]
O time he was away[00:02:37]
For he that's in bed[00:02:39]
With another man's wife[00:02:40]

So the knight he ride and the Bird flew[00:02:47]
Lie still lie still ye gentle knight[00:03:58]
What makes ye toss an turn[00:04:00]
A Bird sang an it troubles me[00:04:02]
An I fear a coming storm[00:04:04]
But is no your hawk upon its perch[00:04:06]
Your horse eats oats and hay[00:04:08]
An we've a lady in your arms[00:04:10]
How can ye wish for day diddle[00:04:12]
So he's turned himself at o'er again[00:04:17]
To take a little sleep[00:04:19]
And when he awoke the lady's lord[00:04:21]
Was standing at their feet crying[00:04:23]
Wow for the day[00:04:25]
An gin it for the day[00:04:27]
For he that's in bed[00:04:29]
With another man's wife[00:04:30]
It's time he was away diddle[00:04:31]
So then he's taken out his sword[00:04:35]
An strained it o'er a stare[00:04:37]
An threw an threw the false knight's heart[00:04:39]
He's guard could iron gale diddle[00:04:41]
Wow for the day[00:04:43]
An gin it for the day[00:04:44]
Oh gin it were day[00:04:46]
And gin I were away[00:04:47]
I ha an long time to stay diddle[00:04:48]
Then he's dared the windows up secure[00:04:52]
With mottle shudders sprang[00:04:54]
An there was neither sun nor sky[00:04:56]
But darkness in her room she cries[00:04:58]
Wow for the day[00:05:00]
An gin it for the day[00:05:02]
Oh gin it were day[00:05:04]
