When First Unto This Country - Ian & Sylvia[00:00:00]

When first unto this country a stranger I came[00:00:05]

And I courted a fair maid and Nancy was her name[00:00:11]

I courted her for love and her love I didn't obtain[00:00:20]

Do you think I've any reason or right to complain[00:00:26]

I rode to see my Nancy I rode both night and day[00:00:49]

Till I noticed a stallion both white looking and gray[00:00:55]

The sheriff's men had followed and they'd overtaken me[00:01:03]

And they carted me away to the penitentiary[00:01:09]

They opened the door and then they shoved me in[00:01:17]

And they shaved off my head and then they cleared off my chin[00:01:23]

They beat me and they banged me and they fed me dry beans[00:01:31]

Till I wished to my own heart I'd never been a thief[00:01:38]

With my hands all in my pockets my cap set on so bold[00:02:00]

And my coat of all colors like Jacob's of old[00:02:06]

When first unto this country a stranger I came[00:02:14]

And I courted a fair maid and Nancy was her name[00:02:20]
