Sweet England - Shirley Collins[00:00:00]
As I was a walking one morning in spring[00:00:15]
To hear the larks whistle and the gully birds sing[00:00:21]
I heard a sweet maiden a making a moan[00:00:28]
But alas I'm a stranger a long way from home[00:00:34]
I came from Sweet England with my mother and dad[00:00:49]
And I thought in america all could be had[00:00:56]
Of gold and of silver and acres galore[00:01:02]
And I'll never meet hunger and poverty more[00:01:08]
But alas for Sweet England my father is dead[00:01:21]
And my mother can learn but there's little for bread[00:01:27]
And I dream as I gaze o'er the far distant[00:01:33]
Main[00:01:37]
For a fine ship to take me to england again[00:01:39]
And the aunt's in the country and she loves me[00:01:54]
Amain[00:01:59]
She look at and love me as I where her[00:02:01]
And nurse her in sickness and tend to her pain[00:02:07]
And thank god I was back in Sweet England again[00:02:13]
And it's so to be back in Sweet England again[00:02:19]
