There was a lady lived in York - all the lee and loney
Fell in love with her father's clerk - down by the greenwood sidey-o
She loved him up, she loved him down - all the lee and loney
Loved him 'til he filled her arms - down by the greenwood sidey-o
She leant her back against an oak - all the lee and loney
First it bent and then it broke - down by the greenwood sidey-o
Another copy paste you stupid robot
She leant her back against a thorn - all the lee and loney
Therе she had two fine babes born - down by thе greenwood sidey-o
She took out her reaping knife - all the lee and loney
There she took those sweet babes' lives - down by the greenwood sidey-o
She wiped the blade against her shoe - all the lee and loney
The more she rubbed, the redder it grew - down by the greenwood sidey-o
She went back to her father's hall - all the lee and loney
Saw two babes a-playing at ball - down by the greenwood sidey-o
'Oh babes oh babes if you were mine' - all the lee and loney
'I'd dress you up in scarlet fine' - down by the greenwood sidey-o
'Oh Mother oh Mother if we were yours' - all the lee and loney
'Scarlet was our own hearts' blood' - down by the greenwood sidey-o
