[Verse]
A# F Gm
In Bruton town there lived a farmer
A# C Dm
Who had two sons and a daughter dear
A# F Gm
By day and night they were conspiring
F Gm
To fill their parents' heart with fear
[Verse]
A# F Gm
One brother said unto the other
A# C Dm
“I think our servant courts our sister dear
A# F Gm
I'll put an end to all their courtship
F Gm
I'll send him silent to his grave”
[Verse]
A# F Gm
They ask-ed him to go a-hunting
A# C Dm
Without any fear or strife
A# F Gm
And these two bold and wicked villains
F Gm
They took away this young man's life
[Verse]
A# F Gm
And in the ditch, there was no water
A# C Dm
Where only bush and briars grew
A# F Gm
They could not hide the bloody slaughter
F Gm
So in the ditch his body they threw
[Verse]
A# F Gm
When they return-ed home from hunting
A# C Dm
She ask-ed for her servant man
A# F Gm
“I ask because I see you whisper
F Gm
So brothers tell me if you can”
[Verse]
A# F Gm
“Oh, sister, sister, you do offend me
A# C Dm
Because you so examine me
A# F Gm
We've lost him where we've been a-hunting
F Gm
No more of him we could not see”
[Verse]
A# F Gm
As she lay dreaming on her pillow
A# C Dm
She thought she saw her heart's delight
A# F Gm
By her bedside as she lay weeping
F Gm
He was dressed all in his bloody coat
[Verse]
A# F Gm
“Don't weep for me, my dearest jewel
A# C Dm
Don't weep for me nor care or pine
A# F Gm
For your two brothers killed me cruel
F Gm
In such a place you may me find”
[Verse]
A# F Gm
As she arose the very next morning
A# C Dm
With heavy sigh and bitter groan
A# F Gm
The only love that she admired
F Gm
She found in the ditch where he was thrown
[Verse]
A# F Gm
The blood upon his lips was drying
A# C Dm
Her tears were salter than brine
A# F Gm
She sometimes kissed him, sometimes crying
F Gm
“Here lies the dearest love of mine”
[Verse]
A# F Gm
Three days and nights she did sit by him
A# C Dm
And her poor heart was filled with woe
A# F Gm
Till cruel hunger crept upon her
F Gm
And homeward she then did go
[Verse]
A# F Gm
When she return-ed to her brothers
A# C Dm
“Sister, what makes you look so thin?”
A# F Gm
“Brother, don't you ask the reason
F Gm
And for his sake ye shall be hung”
