[00:21] Refrain: Lay the bend to the bonny broom
[00:24] And they lived in their mother’s house
[00:28] Refrain: And you’ll beguile a lady soon
[00:30] There came a man one evening late
[00:33] Lay the bend…
[00:36] And he came knocking at the gate
[00:39] And you’ll beguile…
[00:43] The eldest sister let him in
[00:46] Lay the bend…
[00:49] And locked the door with a silver pin
[00:52] And you’ll beguile…
[00:55] The second sister made his bed
[00:58] Lay the bend…
[01:01] And laid soft pillows ‘neath his head
[01:04] And you’ll beguile…
[01:07] The youngest sister, fair and bright
[01:10] Lay the bend…
[01:13] She lay beside him all through the night
[01:16] And you’ll beguile…
[01:44] And in the morning, come the day
[01:47] Lay the bend…
[01:50] She said, “Young man, will you marry me?”
[01:53] And you’ll beguile…
[01:57] And he said, “Yes, I’ll marry thee
[01:59] Lay the bend…
[02:02] If you can answer this to me”
[02:05] And you’ll beguile…
[02:10] “What is greener than the grass?
[02:13] Lay the bend…
[02:15] And what is smoother than the glass?”
[02:19] And you’ll beguile…
[02:22] “What is louder than a horn?
[02:24] Lay the bend…
[02:27] And what is sharper than a thorn?”
[02:30] And you’ll beguile…
[02:34] “What is deeper than the sea?
[02:37] Lay the bend…
[02:39] And what is longer than the way?”
[02:42] And you’ll beguile…
[02:47] “Envy’s greener than the grass
[02:50] Lay the bend…
[02:52] Flattery’s smoother than the glass”
[02:56] And you’ll beguile…
[02:59] “Rumor’s louder than a horn
[03:02] Lay the bend…
[03:05] Slander’s sharper than a thorn”
[03:07] And you’ll beguile…
[03:11] “Regret is deeper than the sea
[03:14] Lay the bend…
[03:17] But love is longer than the way”
[03:29] The eldest sister rang the bell
[03:32] Lay the bend…
[03:35] She rang it from the highest hill
[03:38] And you’ll beguile…
[03:41] The second sister made the gown
[03:45] Lay the bend…
[03:47] She sewed it of the silk so fine
[03:50] And you’ll beguile…
[03:53] The youngest sister, true and wise
[03:56] Lay the bend…
[03:59] They’ve made of her a lovely bride
[04:02] And you’ll beguile…
[04:06] And now fair maids, I bid adieu
[04:09] Lay the bend…
[04:12] These parting words I’ll leave with you
[04:15] And you’ll beguile…
[04:18] May you always constant prove
[04:21] Lay the bend…
[04:25] Unto the one that you do love
