	Traditional
	There was a lady lived in York
	She stabbed her baby to the heart
	She drew a scarf from off her head
	She bound the baby's hands and legs.
	She drew a knife long and sharp
	She stabbed the baby to the heart
	She wiped the knife upon the grass
	The more she wiped, the blood ran fast.
	As she was going to her father's hall
	She saw three children playing at ball
	One in silk, the other in satin
	The other was naked as ever was born.
	‘Oh, dear child, if you were mine’
	’I'd dress you in silk and satins so fine’
	‘Mother dear, I once was thine’
	’You never would dress me, coarse or fine’.
	‘Mother, mother, for your sins’
	’Heaven you shall not enter’
	’There is fire beyond Hell's gate’
	’And there you'll burn forever’.
