The Ballad of George Collins (2012 Barclaycard Mercury Prize Live)
George collins walked out
one may morning
when may was all in blue
and who should he see
but a fair pretty maid
washing her white marble stone
she wooed
she hollerd
she called so loud
she waved her lilly white hand
come hither to me
george collins
cried she
for your life it won't last you long
he
He put his foot on the broad water side,
across the river sprung he.
he gripped his hands
round her middle so small
and he kissed her red ruby lips
then
he road home to his farthers
old house
loudly nocked with the ring
a rise, a rise
my farther he cried
rise and please let me in
oh
a rise, a rise daer mother he cried
rise and make up my bed
a rise, a rise

dear sisster he creid
get a napkin to tie wound my head
for
if i should die tonight
'And if I should chance to die this night,
As I suppose I shall,
Bury me under that marble stone
That's against fair Elanor's hall.'
Fair Elanor sat in her hall
weving her silk so fine
who should she see but the
finest coapse that ever her eyes shon on
oh
she forever called on her head maid
'Whose corpse is this so fine?'
she made her reply
george collins is coapse
and oh true lover of mine
oh
put hime down my brave little boys
and open his coffin so wide
but i may kiss his red ruby lips
ten thousnad times he has kissed mine
the news has been carried to fair londen town
And wrote on London gate,
six pretty maids died all in one night
was all for george collins is safe
