The Baron of Brackley - Connie Dover[00:00:00]
Composed by:traditional[00:00:00]
Down deeside rode inverey a-whistlin' and playin'[00:00:21]
He alit at brave Brackley's gates ere it was dawn[00:00:26]
Cries Baron of Brackley it's are you within[00:00:32]
There are sharp swords at your gates would make your blood spin[00:00:38]
Up spoke the proud Baron from the castle wall[00:00:44]
Have you come inverey for to plunder my hall[00:00:49]
Or if ye be gentlemen alight and come in[00:00:55]
If you drink of my wine you'll no make my blood spin[00:01:00]
Up spake his lady at his back where she lay[00:01:10]
She heard the cows lowing o'er hill and o'er brae[00:01:14]
Oh rise up oh Brackley and turn back your kye[00:01:21]
The lads of drumwarren are driving them by[00:01:26]
How can I rise up and go out again[00:01:59]
For if I have one man he surely has ten[00:02:04]
Rise up oh Brackley and be not afraid[00:02:10]
They're but hired young brigands with belted up plaids[00:02:15]
She called on her ladies to come to her hand[00:02:24]
Saying bring your rocks lassies we will them command[00:02:29]
If I had a husband as what I hae nane[00:02:35]
He'd no lie in his bed and see his kye ta'en[00:02:40]
Arise Peggy gordon and bring me my gun[00:02:50]
Oh I will go out but I'll never come in[00:02:54]
Then kiss me my Peggy I'll no longer stay[00:03:01]
Oh I will go out and meet young inverey[00:03:06]
When Brackley was ready and stood in the close[00:03:15]
A bonnier gallant ne'er mounted a horse[00:03:20]
What'll come of your lady and your bonny young son[00:03:26]
What'll come of them all when Brackley is gone[00:03:31]
Strike dogs cries inverey and fight till you're slain[00:03:40]
For we are four-hundred ye are but four men[00:03:45]
Strike you proud boaster your honor is gone[00:03:52]
Your lands we will plunder your castle we'll burn[00:03:57]
I'll stand here cries Brackley do you think I would fly[00:04:03]
But here I will fight and here I will die[00:04:08]
First they killed ane and then they killed twa[00:04:15]
And then they killed Brackley the flower of them all[00:04:19]
Came ye by the castle and was ye in there[00:04:44]
Saw ye Peggy gordon a-tearing her hair[00:04:48]
As I came by Brackley as I came by there[00:04:55]
I saw pretty Peggy a-braiding her hair[00:05:00]
She was ranting and dancing and singing for joy[00:05:06]
She swore that ere night she would feast inverey[00:05:11]
She ate with drank with him welcomed him in[00:05:18]
Was kind to the man that had slain her Baron[00:05:23]
Oh fie on ye lady why did ye deceive[00:05:32]
Ye opened the gates to the false inverey[00:05:37]
There's grief in the kitchen there's mirth in the hall[00:05:43]
For the Baron of Brackley is dead and awa'[00:05:48]
