| | Album: | Miscellaneous | | Track: | The Troopers Horse | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 260 | | | | Lyrics: | The Trooper's Horse
It's a landlady's daughter and her name was Nelly
And it's
green, O green, the leaves do grow;
And she took sick with a pain in her belly
And
it's ha, young man, do you tell me so?
It was a bold trooper rode up to the inn
He's
perishing cold and wet to the skin.
The landlady put 'em in the bed together
To see
if the one couldn't cure the tother.
"Oh, what's this here, and what's it
called?"
"It's my fine nag and they call him Bald."
"Oh, what's this here, and
what's it called?"
"It's my little well where you can water old Bald."
"Suppose my
nag he should slip in?"
"Just catch on the grass that grows round the brim."
"How
can you tell when he's had his fill?"
"He'll hang down his head, turn away from the
well."
"How can you tell when your nag wants more?"
"He'll rear up his head and go
pawin' 'round the door."
From A.L. Lloyd, Folksong in England
