There was a Lady and a Lady gay

Of children she had three

She sent them away to the North Countree
ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
To learn their grammaree
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
They'd not been gone but a very short time
ch]Am[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Scarcely three weeks and a day
ch]C[/ch
When death, cruel death, came harkening along
ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
And stole those babes away

ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
"There is a King in Heaven," she cried

Send back, send back my three little babes
ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
This night send them back to me."
Verse 4→ Phiên khúc
ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
She made a bed in the uppermost room
ch]Am[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
On it she put a white sheet
ch]C[/ch
And over the top a golden spread
ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
That they much better might sleep
Verse 5→ Phiên khúc
ch]Am[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
"Take it off, take it off," cried the older one
ch]Am[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
"Take it off, take it off," cried he
ch]C[/ch
"For what's to become of this wide wicked world
ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
Since sin has first begun."
Verse 6→ Phiên khúc
ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
She set a table of linen fine

ch]C[/ch
Come eat come drink my three little babes
ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
"Come eat, come drink of mine."
Verse 7→ Phiên khúc
ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
"We want none of your bread, mother
ch]Am[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Neither do we want your wine
ch]C[/ch
For yonder stands our Savior dear
ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
To Him we must resign."
Verse 8→ Phiên khúc
ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
"Green grass is over our heads, mother
ch]Am[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Cold clay is over our feet
ch]C[/ch
And every tear you shed for us
ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
It wets our winding-sheet."
