Barbara Allen - Joan Baez[00:00:00]
Twas in the merry month of May[00:00:06]
When green buds all were swelling[00:00:12]
Sweet william on his death bed lay[00:00:17]
For love of barbara allen[00:00:24]
He sent his servant to the town[00:00:33]
To the place where she was dwelling[00:00:39]
Saying you must come to my master dear[00:00:44]
If your name be barbara allen[00:00:51]
So slowly slowly she got up[00:01:00]
And slowly she drew nigh him[00:01:07]
And the only words to him did say[00:01:12]
Young man I think you're dying[00:01:19]
He turned his face unto the wall[00:01:27]
And death was in him welling[00:01:34]
Good-bye good-bye to my friends all[00:01:39]
Be good to barbara allen[00:01:46]
When he was dead and laid in grave[00:01:55]
She heard the death bells knelling[00:02:01]
And every stroke to her did say[00:02:07]
Hard hearted barbara allen[00:02:13]
Oh mother oh mother go dig my grave[00:02:22]
Make it both long and narrow[00:02:29]
Sweet william died of love for me[00:02:34]
And I will die of sorrow[00:02:41]
And father oh father go dig my grave[00:02:46]
Make it both long and narrow[00:02:53]
Sweet william died on yesterday[00:02:58]
And I will die tomorrow[00:03:05]
Barbara allen was buried in the old churchyard[00:03:13]
Sweet william was buried beside her[00:03:20]
Out of sweet william's heart there grew a rose[00:03:25]
Out of barbara allen's a briar[00:03:32]
They grew and grew in the old churchyard[00:03:41]
Till they could grow no higher[00:03:47]
At the end they formed a true lover's knot[00:03:53]
And the rose grew round the briar[00:04:00]
