lady margret was standing in her own room door[00:00:01]

a comb in her long yellow hair[00:00:05]

when who did she spy but sweet william and his bride[00:00:09]

as to the churchyard they drew near[00:00:14]

the day passed away and the night coming on[00:00:19]

most of the men were asleep[00:00:24]

lady margret appeared all dressed in white[00:00:28]

standing at his bed feet[00:00:32]

she said "how do you like your bed? and how do you like your sheet?[00:00:37]

and how do you like your fair, young bride[00:00:46]

that's laying in your arms asleep?"[00:00:50]

he said "very well do i like my bed.[00:00:55]

much better do i like my sheet[00:01:00]

but most of all that fair, young girl[00:01:04]

standing at my bed feet"[00:01:09]

then once he kissed her lily white hand[00:01:14]

and twice he kissed her cheek[00:01:17]

three times he kissed her cold corpsy lips[00:01:21]

then he fell into her arms asleep[00:01:27]

when the night passed away and the day came on[00:01:31]

and into the morning light[00:01:35]

sweet william said "i'm troubled in my head[00:01:40]

such dreams, such dreams as these[00:01:48]

i know they mean no good[00:01:52]

for i dreamed that my bower was full of red swine[00:01:56]

and my bride's bed full of blood"[00:02:01]

he asked "is lady margret in her room?[00:02:05]

or is she out in the hall?"[00:02:09]

but lady margret lay in a cold, black coffin[00:02:13]

with her face turned to the wall[00:02:18]

throw back, throw back those snow white robe[00:02:22]

be they ever so fine[00:02:28]

and let me kiss those cold corpsy lips[00:02:32]

for i know they'll never kiss mine[00:02:36]

then once he kissed her lily white hand[00:02:40]

and twice he kissed her cheek[00:02:45]

three times he kissed her cold corpsy lips then he fell into her arms asleep[00:02:49]
