John Wesley Harding - Annan Water слова песни
Oh annan waters wondrous deepAnd my love annies wondrous bonnyIm loathed that she should wet her feetBecause I love her best of anyGo saddle to me my bonny grey mareGo saddle her soon and make her readyFor I must cross that river tonightAnd all to see my bonny ladyAnd woe betide you annan waterAt night you are a gloomy riverAnd over you Ill build a bridgeThat never more true love may severHe has ridden over field and fellOn moor and moss and many a mileHis spurs of steel were sore to biteAnd from the mares feet flew the fireThe mare flew over moss and moorAnd when shed won the annan waterShe couldnt have ridden a furlong moreHad a thousand whips been laid upon herAnd woe betide you annan waterAt night you are a gloomy riverAnd over you Ill build a bridgeThat never more true love may severOh boatman come put up your boatPut up your boat for gold and moneyFor I must cross that stream tonightOr never more Ill see my annieThe sides are steep, the waters deepFrom bank to brae the waters pouringAnd your bonny grey mare she sweats for fearShe stands to hear the waters roaringAnd woe betide you annan waterAt night you are a gloomy riverAnd over you Ill build a bridgeThat never more true love may severAnd he has tried to swim that streamAnd he swam on both strong and steadyBut the river was broad and strength did failAnd he never saw his bonny ladyOh woe betide the willow wandAnd woe betide the bush of briarFor it broke beneath the true lovers handWhen strength did fail and limbs did tireAnd woe betide you annan waterAt night you are a gloomy riverAnd over you Ill build a bridgeThat never more true love may sever
