Great Selchie Of Shule Skerry - Judy Collins[00:00:00]
In Norway there sits a maid[00:00:12]
By Lou my baby she begins[00:00:19]
Little know I my child's father[00:00:27]
Or if land or sea he's livin' in[00:00:34]
Then there arose at her bed feet[00:00:44]
And a grumbly guest[00:00:52]
I'm sure it was he[00:00:55]
Saying here am I that child's father[00:00:59]
Although that I am not comely[00:01:07]
I am a man upon the land[00:01:19]
I am a selchie in the sea[00:01:26]
And when I am in my own country[00:01:32]
My dwellin' is in Shule Skerry[00:01:39]
And he hath taken a purse of gold[00:01:50]
He hath put it upon her knee[00:01:57]
Saying give to me my little wee son[00:02:03]
And take thee up that nurse's fee[00:02:10]
And it shall come to pass[00:02:20]
On a summer day[00:02:24]
When the sun shines hot[00:02:28]
On every stone[00:02:32]
That I shall take my little wee son[00:02:36]
And I'll teach him for to swim in the foam[00:02:43]
And you will marry a gunner good[00:02:53]
And a proud good gunner[00:03:00]
I'm sure he'll be and he'll go out on a may morning[00:03:04]
And he'll kill both my wee son and me[00:03:16]
And lo she did marry a gunner good[00:03:27]
And a proud good gunner I'm sure it was he[00:03:35]
And the very first shot that ere he did shoot[00:03:44]
He killed the son and the great Selchie[00:03:54]
In Norway there sits a maid[00:04:14]
By Lou my baby she begins[00:04:22]
Little know I my child's father[00:04:31]
Or if land or sea he's livin' in[00:04:39]
