- Barbara Allen-Judy Collins
Twas in the merry month of May When green buds were swelling A young man on his death bed Lay for his lover Barbara Allen He sent his servant unto town Send it to her dwelling My masters sick and Its sent for you If your are Barbara Allen Oh, slowly, slowly got she up And slowly went she nigh him And all she said When she got there was My true love youre dying He turned his pale face onto the wall, And death was on him dwellin. 'Adieu, Adieu, to my sweet friends all, Be kind to Barbara Allen.' AS She walked down the road upon She saw his corpse a-comin. 'Lay down, lay down the cold ground,' she said, 'And let me gaze upon him.' Oh mother, mother make my bed, Oh make it soft and narrow, For my true love died today, Ill die for him tomorrow.' They buried Barbara in the old church tower They buried Sweet William beside her From his grave grew a red, red rose They grew up the top of old church tower Till they could grow no higher And at the top twined a lovers knot The red rose and the briar Arranged by Kidlang
