The Cruel Mother
She leaned her back up against the thorn The sun shines down on Carlisle Wall Then she has a bonny babe born And the lion shall be lord of all
She layed him beneath some marble stone The sun shines down on Carlisle Wall Thinking to go a maiden home And the lion shall be lord of all
As she looked over her father's wall The sun shines down on Carlisle Wall She saw that pretty babe playing a ball And the lion shall be lord of all
Oh bonny babe if you were mine The sun shines down on Carlisle Wall I'd dress you in that silk so fine And the lion shall be lord of all
Oh mother mine when I was thine The sun shines down on Carlisle Wall I didn't see any of your silk so fine And the lion shall be lord of all
Oh bonny babe pray tell to me Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com The sun shines down on Carlisle Wall The sort of death I shall have to die And the lion shall be lord of all
Seven years of fish, fish in the flood The sun shines down on Carlisle Wall Seven years of bird in the wood And the lion shall be lord of all
Seven years of tongue to the warning bell The sun shines down on Carlisle Wall Seven years in the flames of hell And the lion shall be lord of all
Welcome, welcome fish in the flood The sun shines down on Carlisle Wall Welcome, welcome bird in the wood And the lion shall be lord of all
And welcome tongue to the warning bell The sun shines down on Carlisle Wall But God keep me from the flames of hell And the lion shall be lord of all
