| [00:08.53] |
As I walked under london bridge |
| [00:15.63] |
One misty morning early, |
| [00:24.17] |
I overheard a fair, pretty maid, |
| [00:31.39] |
Lamenting for her geordie. |
| [00:43.09] |
''my geordie will be hanged with a golden chain, |
| [00:50.36] |
'tis not the chain of many. |
| [00:59.52] |
He stole sixteen of the king's royal deer |
| [01:08.50] |
And he sold them in boeny.'' |
| [01:17.50] |
''go saddle me my milk white steed |
| [01:28.79] |
Go saddle me my pony |
| [01:36.31] |
That I may ride to london's courts |
| [01:43.72] |
To plead for the life of geordie.'' |
| [01:55.97] |
''my geordie never hurt a man nor calf |
| [02:03.63] |
He never hurted any |
| [02:12.40] |
He stole sixteen of the king's royal deer |
| [02:19.24] |
And he sold them in killkenny.'' |
| [03:11.65] |
''two pretty babies have I borne, |
| [03:20.39] |
The third lies in my body, |
| [03:27.80] |
And I would part with them every one, |
| [03:36.34] |
If you pardon my dear geordie.'' |
| [03:46.59] |
But the judge looked over his left shoulder, |
| [03:56.05] |
He said, ''fair maid, I'm sorry, |
| [04:03.66] |
I cannot pardon the one you love, |
| [04:15.15] |
He has been hanged already.'' |
| [04:24.64] |
