Susan McKeown - Bonny Greenwoodside lyrics

Artist: Susan McKeown

album: Lowlands


She's leaned her back against an oak,
All alone and a'lonely O',
She's pushed, and pushed till her back's nearly broke.
Down in the bonny greenwood side e-o.
She's laid her head against a thorn,
All alone and a'lonely O',
The two bonniest babes that ever were born. Down in the bonny greenwood side e-o.
She's went back to her fathers castle hall,
All alone and a'lonely O'
She-e was the smallest maid of them all.
Down in the bonny greenwood side e-o.
She looks over her father's castle wall,
All alone and a'lonely O',
Two bonny babies a' playin' at a ball.
Down in the bonny greenwood side e-o.
O, dear babies if you were mine,
All alone and a'lonely O',
I'd give you bread, and I'd give you wine.
Down in the bonny greenwood side e-o.
O Dear Mother, when we were thine,
All alone and a'lonely O',
'Round our necks you pulled the twine.
Down in the bonny greenwood side e-o.
Now we are in the heaven so High,
All alone and a'lonely O',
And in hells fires you will die.
Down in the bonny greenwood side e-o.
Only a mother that's ever lost a child,
All alone and a'lonely O',
Knows the grief the heart's open (wide?).
Down in the bonny greenwood side e-o.
