The Baron of Brackley

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]
