Blackjack David (Live)

歌詞

Traditional, Arranged by Dave Alvin (Blue Horn Toad Music, BMI, Administered by Bug Music) Blackjack David came a-ridin' through the wood Singin' so loud and merry His voice was a-ringin' through the green, green fields And he spied a fair-haired maiden Spied a fair-haired maiden. "Listen here lass my name is Jack And I come from afar Lookin' for a fair-haired lass like you Won't you come and be my bride Come and be my bride?�? "Now would you forsake your husband, dear Would you forsake your baby Would you forsake your fine, fine home To go with a Blackjack David Go with Blackjack David?�? "Yes, I'd forsake my husband, dear And I'd forsake my baby And I'd forsake my fine, fine home Just to go with you Blackjack David Go with you Blackjack David.�? She put on her high-heeled boots Made of Spanish leather And he pulled her up behind him then And they both rode off together Both rode off together. Well last night she slept in a fine, fine bed Beside her husband and baby Tonight she sleeps on a cold, cold ground Beside old Blackjack David Beside old Blackjack David Beside old Blackjack David Beside old Blackjack David.
