Barbry Allen Feat. Aaron Ramsey (single)
In Scarlet Town where I was born there was a fair maid dwellin’
And every youth cried well away, for her name was Barbry Allen
In the merry month of May when the greenbuds were all swellin’
Young William on his deathbed lay for the love of Barbry Allen
He sent her servant to the town to the place where she was dwellin’
Saying You must to my master if your name be Barbry Allen
So slowly, slowly she got up and slowly she drew nigh him
And the only words to him she said was I believe you’re dying
He turned his face unto the wall, and death was on him wellin’
Goodbye goodbye to my friends all be good to Barbry Allen
When was dead and laid in the grave she heard the death-bells knellin’
And every stroke to her did say heard-hearted Barbry Allen
Oh father father dig my grave and make it long and narrow
Young William died on yesterday and I’ll die on the morrow
Barbry Allen was laid in the old churchyard sweet Will was laid beside her
In Scarlet Town where I was born there was a fair maid dwellin’
Every youth cried well away for her name was Barbry Allen
