[00:11.750]The king has been a prisoner,
[00:18.003]And a prisoner long in Spain,
[00:23.574]And Willie of the Winsbury,
[00:29.913]Has lain long with his daughter at home.
[00:35.588]"What ails you, what ails you, my daughter Janet,
[00:41.973]Why you look so pale and wan?
[00:47.453]Oh, have you had any sore sickness
[00:53.874]Or yet been sleeping with a man?"
[00:59.467]"I have not had any sore sickness,
[01:05.914]Nor yet been sleeping with a man.
[01:11.205]It is for you, my father dear,
[01:17.800]For biding so long in Spain."
[01:23.316]"Cast off, cast off your berry-brown gown,
[01:29.719]You stand naked upon the stone,
[01:35.122]That I may know you by your shape,
[01:41.843]If you be a maiden or no."
[01:47.288]And she's cast off her berry-brown gown
[01:53.778]She stood naked upon the stone
[01:59.044]Her apron was low and her haunches were round,
[02:05.497]Her face was pale and wan.
[02:10.843]"Oh, was it with a lord or a duke or a knight,
[02:17.242]Or a man of birth and fame,
[02:22.572]Or was it with one of my serving men
[02:29.061]That's lately come out of Spain?"
[02:34.460]"It wasn't with a lord, nor a duke or a knight,
[02:40.930]Nor a man of birth and fame,
[02:46.305]But it was with Willie of Winsbury,
[02:52.914]I could bide no longer alone."
[02:58.409]And the king has called on his merry men all,
[03:04.701]By thirty and by three,
[03:10.183]Says, "Fetch me this Willie of Winsbury,
[03:16.458]For hanged he shall be."
[03:21.969](- Instrumental verse -)
[03:45.847]But when he came the king before,
[03:52.397]He was clad all in the red silk.
[03:57.637]His hair was like the strands of gold,
[04:04.193]His skin was as white as the milk.
[04:09.671]And "It is no wonder," said the king,
[04:16.254]"That my daughter's love you did win.
[04:21.704]For if I was a woman, as I am a man,
[04:28.248]My bedfellow you would have been."
[04:33.922]"And will you marry my daughter Janet,
[04:40.432]By the truth of your right hand?
[04:45.858]Oh, will you marry my daughter Janet?
[04:52.394]I will make you the lord of my land."
[04:57.823]"Oh yes, I will marry your daughter Janet.
[05:04.315]By the truth of my right hand.
[05:09.939]Why yes, I will marry your daughter Janet,
[05:16.556]But I'll not be the lord of your land."
[05:21.921]And he's mounted her on a milk-white steed,
[05:28.564]And himself on a dapple grey.
[05:33.980]He has made her the lady of as much land
[05:40.571]As she shall ride in a long summer's day.
[05:48.200]
