Текст песни Willie Taylor - June Tabor
Willie
Taylor,
youthful
lover
Full
of
love
and
loyalty
Just
as
he
was
about
to
get
married
Pressed
he
was
and
sent
to
sea
Ride
the
ring
rattle-de-ho
Rattle-diddle-day-te
Rattle-diddle-day
She
dressed
herself
in
man's
apparel
Went
by
the
name
of
Richard
Carr
Pretty
little
fingers
all
red
and
rosy
All
bedaubed
with
pitch
and
tar
Ride
the
ring
rattle-de-ho
Rattle-diddle-day-te
Rattle-diddle-day
One
day
in
the
heat
of
battle
Shot
and
shell
were
flying
there
Silver
button
flew
off
her
waistcoat
Left
her
lily-white
breast
quite
bare
Ride
the
ring
rattle-de-ho
Rattle-diddle-day-te
Rattle-diddle-day
Then
up
stepped
her
bold
commander
Says,
"Fair
maid
what
brought
you
here?"
"Come
in
search
of
Willie
Taylor
Who
was
pressed
from
me
last
year"
Ride
the
ring
rattle-de-ho
Rattle-diddle-day-te
Rattle-diddle-day
"You
come
in
search
of
Willie
Taylor
Willie
Taylor,
he's
not
here
I
do
hear
he
lately
got
married
To
some
lovely
lady
fair
Ride
the
ring
rattle-de-ho
Rattle-diddle-day-te
Rattle-diddle-day
"If
you
rise
early
in
the
morning
Just
before
the
break
of
day
There
you'll
see
your
Willie
Taylor
Walking
out
with
his
lady
gay"
Ride
the
ring
rattle-de-ho
Rattle-diddle-day-te
Rattle-diddle-day
She
rose
early
in
the
morning
Just
before
the
break
of
day
There
she
spied
her
Willie
Taylor
Walking
out
with
his
lady
gay
Ride
the
ring
rattle-de-ho
Rattle-diddle-day-te
Rattle-diddle-day
She's
called
for
a
brace
of
pistols
That
were
brought
at
her
command
Fired
and
shot
her
false
Willie
And
the
bride
at
his
right
hand
Ride
the
ring
rattle-de-ho
Rattle-diddle-day-te
Rattle-diddle-day
Come
all
you
young
men,
pay
attention
Don't
play
tricks
on
your
young
wives
Willie
got
shot
and
Polly
got
drownèd
And
that
was
the
end
of
both
their
lives
Ride
the
ring
rattle-de-ho
Rattle-diddle-day-te
Rattle-diddle-day
