I Sowed Some Seeds (LIVE)

歌詞

When first to London town I came I took my lodging all at some inn. For full five months I did remain But being a stranger I fell in danger Doing so, doing so. The landlord had a daughter fair, She was a beauty I do declare. In her bedchamber I dared not go But being a stranger I fell in danger Doing so, doing so. She'd ruby lips and she'd eyes of blue, They caused me to love her so; I kissed her lips, her bosom too, But being a stranger I fell in danger Doing so, doing so. All in the grove my seed was sown, All in the grove where grew no green. The more I kissed her, this girl being young, The more I kissed her her eyes did glister Like the rising of the sun. The seeds of love, they grew apace, The tears they blossomed all on her face. All for to reap it I would not stay But being a stranger I fell in danger, Ran away, I ran away. Now when nine long months they were gone and past This pretty girl had her babe at last. She must keep it like it was her own And reap the seeds I myself have sown Doing so, doing so.
