Tia Blake - Polly Vaughn lyrics

Artist: Tia Blake

album: Folksongs & Ballads


I shall tell of a hunter whose life was undone
By the cruel hand of evil at the setting of the sun
His arrow was loosed and it flew threw the dark
His true love was slain as the shaft found its mark
She'd her apron wrapped about her and he took her for a swan
And it so, and alas, it was she, Polly Vaughn
He ran up beside her and found it was she
He turned away his head for he could not bear to see
He lifted her up and found she was dead
A fountain of tears for his true love he shed
She'd her apron wrapped about her and he took her for a swan
And it so, and alas, it was she, Polly Vaughn
He brought her away to his home by the sea
Father, oh father I murdered poor Polly
I killed my fair love in the flower of her life
I'd always intended that she be my wife
She'd her apron wrapped about her and he took her for a swan
And it so, and alas, it was she, Polly Vaughn
He round near the place where his true love was slain
He wept bitter tears but his cries were all vain
He looked on the lake, a swan glided by
The sun slowly sank in the grey of the sky
She'd her apron wrapped about her and he took her for a swan
And it so, and alas, it was she, Polly Vaughn
