Geordie - Shirley & Dolly Collins[00:00:01]
As I rode over London Bridge[00:00:37]
One misty morning early[00:00:43]
I overheard a tender-hearted girl[00:00:47]
Plead for the life of Geordie[00:00:55]
Now Geordie never stole outside[00:01:02]
He never murdered any[00:01:07]
He only shot a King's white deer[00:01:12]
All for to feed his family[00:01:19]
Then the judge looked over his left shoulder[00:01:26]
And thus he says to Geordie[00:01:31]
By your confession you shall hang[00:01:36]
And the Lord have mercy upon you[00:01:43]
Then Geordie he looked around the court[00:02:15]
And saw his dearest Polly[00:02:20]
Said he My love you've come too late[00:02:25]
For I am condemned already[00:02:32]
It's six pretty babes I've born to you[00:02:39]
And the seventh lies in my body[00:02:44]
But freely would I part with them[00:02:48]
To spare the life of Geordie[00:02:56]
Then Geordie he walked around the court[00:03:02]
And said farewell to many[00:03:08]
But the leaving of his own true love[00:03:12]
That grieved him worst of any[00:03:19]
Let Geordie hang in golden chains[00:03:38]
His crimes they were not many[00:03:44]
He only shot a King's white deer[00:03:49]
All for to feed his family[00:03:55]
