Betsy Bell and Mary Gray文本歌词

作词 : Traditional

Betsy Bell and Mary Gray

They were bonny lasses

They built them a bower on yon burnside

They theeked it all o'er wi' rushes

They theeked it all o'er wi' rushes green

They theeked it all o'er wi' heather

The plague come from the borough town

And slew them both together

They would not have their shoes of red

Nor would they have them yellow

But they would have their shoes of green

To ride through the streets of Yarrow

They thought to lie all in the churchyard

Among their noble kin

But they were laid in Stronach Hall

All out beneath the sun

Betsy Bell and Mary Gray

They were bonny lasses

They built them a bower on yon burnside

They theeked it all o'er wi' rushes
