Factory Girl (工厂女孩) - Kronos Quartet (古典先锋四重奏)/Natalie Merchant (娜坦莉·莫森特)[00:00:00]

Written by：Rhiannon Giddens/Traditional[00:00:00]

As I went a walkin' on a fine summer's mornin'[00:00:43]

The birds on the bushes did whistle and sing[00:00:51]

The lads and the lasses in couples were sportin'[00:00:57]

Then back to the factory their work to begin[00:01:03]

I spy one among them she was fairer than any[00:01:13]

Her cheeks like the roses[00:01:20]

That bloom in the spring[00:01:24]

Her skin like the lily that blooms in your valley[00:01:28]

She was only a hard workin' factory girl[00:01:35]

I stepped up to her more closely to view her[00:02:25]

When on me she cast a look of destain[00:02:32]

Saying young man stand off me and do not come near me[00:02:37]

I work for my living and think it no shame[00:02:47]

The next morning I was there ready and waiting[00:02:57]

And begged her to talk to me just for a spell[00:03:04]

And each morning after she lingered still longer[00:03:10]

And then hurried away at the sound of the bell[00:03:19]

Then came the morning when silence did greet me[00:04:34]

The birds on the bushes were stricken and still[00:04:41]

So I stepped on the path where she often did meet me[00:04:48]

And I walked to the factory up on the hill[00:04:55]

The crowd gathered round[00:05:05]

Couldn't hide the destruction[00:05:08]

I cast my eyes on it in such disbelief[00:05:12]

A truth of the world settled into the ashes[00:05:19]

The rich men's neglect is the poor man's grief[00:05:27]

As I stood there a whisper it did caress me[00:05:39]

A faint scent of roses my senses begun[00:05:47]

I lifted my face and I saw that above me[00:05:56]

A thousand young butterflies darkened the sun[00:06:07]
