The Cobbler's Daughter
I am a cobbler's daughter I'm thought of rude and mean But a finer and a bonnier lass You have never seen I've plagued my father's head For my life I wouldn't wed And my mother's in the prison cause of me
There was a handsome young man Who used to live near me If I went out, if I went in He'd always follow me I'll never rue the day It happened as I say I led him to my chamber room to see
I led him to my chamber So we could be alone And knowing that my mother And my father were at home He kissed me on the cheek Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com And I screamed till I was weak My father came a running to the door
He's jumped upon the young man As I was standing by But he brought his fist behind his head And thumped him in the eye Then my mother heard the din Up the stairs she did begin With a broom for a weapon she held high
Out ran the young man To the stairs straightway But my mother she was waiting Like a raging bull I'd say She's hit him on the head The young man fell like lead Quite dead upon the floor he lay
