Child Ballads - Lyrics

1

'Oh open door, Lord Gregory,
Oh open, and me ;
The rain rains my scarlet robes,
The dew drops oer my .'

2

'If are lass I lovd once,
As true are she,
Come give me of tokens
That past between and .'

3

'Ah be you, Gregory,
An death you !
You not the one,
But 'll the three.

4

'Oh 't mind, Lord Gregory,
'Twas at burn-
We changed ring our fingers,
And put mine thine?'

1	'Oh open the door, Lord Gregory, Oh open, and let me in; The rain rains on my scarlet robes, The dew drops oer my chin.'
2	'If you are the lass that I lovd once, As I true you are not she, Come give me some of the tokens That past between you and me.'
3	'Ah wae be to you, Gregory, An ill death may you die! You will not be the death of one, But you'll be the death of three.
4	'Oh don't you mind, Lord Gregory, 'Twas down at yon burn-side We changed the ring of our fingers, And I put mine on thine?'
