There Lived an Old Lord Jean Ritchie

[Verse 1]
There lived an old lord by the Northern sea
Bow down
There lived an old lord by the Northern sea
Bow your bend to me
There lived an old lord by the Northern sea
And he had daughters one, two, three

[Refrain]
I'll be true to my love
If my love be true to me

[Verse 2]
A young man came a-courting there
Bow down
A young man came a-courting there
Bow your bend to me
A young man came a-courting there
And he took his choicе of the youngest fair

[Refrain]
I'll be truе to my love
If my love be true to me

[Verse 3]
He gave this youngest a beaver hat
Bow down
He gave this youngest a beaver hat
Bow your bend to me
He gave this youngest a beaver hat
The oldest she thought little of that
