Child Ballads - Lyrics

Child 39
Tam Lin
Version N

Narrative

1   'Gowd rings I can buy, Thomas,
Green mantles I can spin,
But gin ye take my maidenheid
I'll neer get that again.'
2   Out and spak the queen o fairies,
Out o a shot o wheat,
'She that has gotten young Tamlane
Has gotten my heart's delight.'
