As I walked over London bridge
Oh so early in the morning,
If was there
I met a pretty fair maid
All lamenting for her Geordie.
What has he done? Who has he
killed?
Has he murdered anybody?"
"No, he stole five pearls from the royal king
And
he sold them in a hurry."
"Go bring to me my riding steed,
Go saddle up my
pony.
Five hundred pounds I will lay down
All to plead for the life of
Geordie."
"We will have him hung with a golden chain:
Such a chain there is not
many.
We will have him buried with the same
For the likes and the life of
Geordie."
The judge looked over his right shoulder_
It was words he didn't say
many:
"Prepare yourself for death, young man,
For it's mercy you shan't have
any."
The judge looked over his left shoulder;
it was words he didn't say
many:
"I'm afeared you came too late, fair maid,
For your loved one is judged
already."
"If I had my Geordie on yonders plain
It's kisses I'd have many.
With
a sword and pistol by my side
I'll die for the life of Geordie."
From Folk Songs of
Canada, Fowkes
Child #209
