Lord Baker - Sinéad O'Connor (西尼德·奥康娜)[00:00:00]
There was a Lord who lived in this land[00:00:08]
He being a Lord of high degree[00:00:15]
He left his foot down a ship's board[00:00:24]
And swore strange countries he would go see [00:00:32]
He's travelled east and he's travelled west[00:00:42]
Half the north and the south also[00:00:52]
Until he arrived into Turkey land [00:01:00]
There he was taken and bound in prison[00:01:08]
Until his life it grew weary [00:01:17]
And Turkey bold had one only daughter[00:01:27]
As fair a lady as the eye could see[00:01:36]
She stole the key to her Daddy's harbour[00:01:45]
And swore Lord Baker she would set free [00:01:53]
Singing 'You have houses and you have linen [00:02:02]
All Northumber belongs to thee[00:02:11]
What would you give to Turkey's daughter[00:02:20]
If out of prison she'd set you free '[00:02:28]
Singing 'I have houses I have linen [00:02:37]
All Northumber belongs to me[00:02:46]
I would will them all to you my darling [00:02:54]
If out of prison you set me free '[00:03:03]
She's brought him down to her Daddy's harbour[00:03:12]
And filled for him was the ship of fame[00:03:22]
And every toast that she did drink round him [00:03:31]
'I wish Lord Baker that you were mine '[00:03:39]
They made a vow for seven years[00:03:52]
And seven more for to keep it strong[00:04:01]
Saying 'If you don't wed with no other woman[00:04:08]
I'm sure I'll wed with no other man '[00:04:17]
And seven years been past and over[00:04:26]
And seven more they were rolling on[00:04:36]
She's bundled up all her golden clothing[00:04:45]
And swore Lord Baker she would go find [00:04:53]
She's travelled East and she's travelled West[00:05:03]
Until she came to the palace of fame[00:05:12]
'Who is that who is that ' called the young foot soldier[00:05:20]
'Who knocks so gently and can't get in '[00:05:29]
'Is this Lord Baker's palace ' replied the lady[00:05:39]
'Or is his lordship himself within '[00:05:50]
'This is Lord Baker's palace' replied the porter [00:05:59]
'This very day took a new bride in '[00:06:08]
'Well ask him send me a cut of his wedding cake[00:06:22]
A glass of his wine that been e'er so strong[00:06:31]
And to remember the brave young lady[00:06:40]
Who did release him in Turkey land '[00:06:49]
In goes in goes the young foot soldier[00:07:00]
Kneels down gently on his right knee[00:07:10]
'Rise up rise up now the brave young porter [00:07:18]
What news what news have you got for me '[00:07:27]
Singing 'I have news of a grand arrival [00:07:36]
As fair a lady as the eye could see[00:07:46]
She is at the gate[00:07:55]
Waiting for your charity '[00:07:57]
'She wears a gold ring on every finger [00:08:05]
And on the middle one where she wears three [00:08:15]
She has more gold hanging around her middle[00:08:23]
Than'd buy Northumber and family '[00:08:31]
'She asked you send her a cut of your wedding cake[00:08:41]
A glass of your wine it been e'er so strong [00:08:50]
And to remember the brave young lady[00:08:59]
Who did release you in Turkey land '[00:09:07]
Down comes down comes the new bride's mother[00:09:23]
'What will I do with my daughter dear '[00:09:31]
'I know your daughter she's not been covered[00:09:42]
Nor has she shown any love for me [00:09:52]
Your daughter came with one pack of gold[00:10:00]
I'll avert her home now with thirty-three '[00:10:08]
He took his sword all by the handle[00:10:18]
And cut the wedding cake in pieces three[00:10:27]
Singing 'here's a slice for the new bride's mother[00:10:36]
A slice for me new love and one for me '[00:10:44]
And then Lord Baker ran to his darling[00:10:52]
Of twenty-one steps he made but three[00:11:02]
He put his arms around Turkey's daughter[00:11:11]
And kissed his true love most tenderly[00:11:19]
