Текст песни Bonny Barbara Allen (New Original Melody) (feat. Brock Pollock [upright bass]) - Deborah Stokol

In Scarlet Town, where I was born
There lived a fair maid dwelling
Made every youth cry well-a-way
Her name was Barbara Allen

All in the merry month of May
When green buds they were swelling
Young Jimmy Groves on death bed lay
For love of Barbara Allen

Then slowly, slowly, she came in
And slowly came to him
But all she said when there she came was
Lad, I think you're dyin'

As she was walking o'er the fields
She heard the bell a knelling
With every stroke she realized
The error she'd been making

Father, she said, dig my grave
O dig it long and narrow
My own true love buried today
So I shall die tomorrow

Farewell, said she, you maidens all
And shun the fault I fell in
Henceforth take warning by the fall
The fall of Barbara Allen

They buried him in old church yard
They buried her beside him
And out her grave, there sprang a rose
And out of his a briar

The rose and briar grew so high
They rose up to the tower
They hooked and tied a true love's knot
Red rose around the briar
They hooked and tied a true love's knot
Red rose around the briar
They hooked and tied a true love's knot
A rose around a briar
