Barbara Allen-Judy Collins[00:00:04]
Twas in the merry month of May[00:00:25]
When green buds were swelling[00:00:30]
A young man on his death bed[00:00:33]
Lay for his lover Barbara Allen[00:00:38]
He sent his servant unto town[00:00:49]
Send it to her dwelling[00:00:53]
My master's sick and It's sent for you[00:00:58]
If your are Barbara Allen[00:01:02]
Oh, slowly, slowly got she up[00:01:13]
And slowly went she nigh him[00:01:18]
And all she said When she got there was[00:01:22]
My true love you're dying[00:01:27]
He turned his pale face onto the wall,[00:01:37]
And death was on him dwellin'.[00:01:42]
"Adieu, Adieu, to my sweet friends all,[00:01:54]
Be kind to Barbara Allen."[00:01:59]
AS She walked down the road upon[00:02:04]
She saw his corpse a-comin'.[00:02:13]
"Lay down, lay down the cold ground," she said,[00:02:18]
"And let me gaze upon him."[00:02:24]
Oh mother, mother make my bed,[00:02:37]
Oh make it soft and narrow,[00:02:42]
For my true love died today,[00:02:46]
I'll die for him tomorrow."[00:02:51]
They buried Barbara in the old church tower[00:03:03]
They buried Sweet William beside her[00:03:10]
From his grave grew a red, red rose[00:03:14]
They grew up the top of old church tower[00:03:30]
Till they could grow no higher[00:03:36]
And at the top twined a lover's knot[00:03:39]
The red rose and the briar[00:03:48]
Arranged by Kidlang[00:04:26]
