Maid Of The Sweet Brown Knowe - The Dubliners[00:00:01]

Come all you lads and lassies[00:00:06]

And listen to me a while[00:00:09]

I'll sing to you a verse or two[00:00:11]

That will surely make you smile[00:00:13]

Concerning a young man I'm going to tell you now[00:00:15]

Who has lately come a-courting[00:00:19]

The maid of the sweet brow nknowe[00:00:21]

This young man says:[00:00:24]

'My pretty maid will ye come along with me[00:00:25]

We'll both fly off together[00:00:28]

And happy we will be[00:00:29]

We'll join our hands in wedlock bands[00:00:31]

As I am speaking with you now[00:00:34]

And I'll do my best endeavour for[00:00:36]

The maid of the sweet brown knowe'[00:00:38]

This fair and fickle young thing[00:00:44]

She knew not what to say[00:00:47]

Her eyes did shine like diamonds bright[00:00:49]

And merrily did play[00:00:51]

She says: 'Young man your love subdued[00:00:53]

For I'm not ready now[00:00:54]

And I'll spend another season[00:00:57]

At the foot of the sweet brown knowe'[00:00:58]

The young man said: 'My pretty maid[00:01:01]

How can you answer so[00:01:04]

See down in yonder valley[00:01:06]

Where my crops do gently grow[00:01:07]

Down in yonder valley[00:01:10]

I have horses men and plough[00:01:11]

And they're at their daily labour[00:01:14]

For the maid of the sweet brown knowe'[00:01:15]

'If they're at their daily labour[00:01:18]

Kind Sir it's not for me[00:01:23]

I've heard of your behaviour[00:01:26]

I have indeed' said she[00:01:28]

'There is an inn where you call in[00:01:30]

I've heard the people say[00:01:33]

And you rap and you call and you pay for all[00:01:35]

And go home at the break of day'[00:01:37]

'If I rap and call and I pay for all[00:01:38]

The money is all my own[00:01:40]

I will never spend your fortune[00:01:41]

For I hear that you've got none[00:01:43]

You've thought you had my poor heart broken[00:01:45]

By meeting with ye now[00:01:48]

But I leave you where I found you[00:01:50]

At the foot of the sweet brown knowe'[00:01:52]
