Mary of the Wild Moor - Charlie Louvin[00:00:00]
It was on one cold winter night[00:00:11]
When the wind blew across the wild moor[00:00:18]
When Mary came wandering home with her child[00:00:24]
'Til she came to her own father's door[00:00:31]
Father dear father she cried[00:00:38]
Come down and open the door[00:00:44]
Or the child in my arms will perish and die[00:00:50]
From the winds that blow across the wild moor[00:00:57]
Oh why did I leave just a spark[00:01:04]
Where watch I was happy and feel[00:01:10]
I'm not do to long without friends and home[00:01:17]
And no more to take did he wild moor[00:01:24]
But her father was deaf to her cry[00:01:30]
Not a sound of her voice did he hear[00:01:37]
So the watch dogs did howl[00:01:44]
And the village bells tolled[00:01:47]
And the wind blew across the wild moor[00:01:50]
Oh how the old man must have felt[00:02:03]
When he came to the door the next morn'[00:02:10]
And he found Mary dead but the child still alive[00:02:17]
Closely grasping it's dead mother's arms[00:02:24]
In grief the old man passed away[00:02:31]
And the child to it's mother went soon[00:02:38]
And no one they say have there that till this day[00:02:44]
And the cottage to ruin has gone[00:02:50]
But the villagers point out the spot[00:03:04]
Where the willows grew over the door[00:03:11]
Saying there Mary died once the gay village bride[00:03:18]
From the wind that blew across the wild moor[00:03:24]
