lyrics

Twas on a sunday morning and beside the river there
Jenny staring down into the water
and up rode a man all riding on a night black mare
"Hey you staring down into the water!
Would you ride with me in my cavalry?
For only the lost will fall in love with me"

"But sir I am not lost at all - this river is the Sheaf"
(said she, staring down into the water)
"And sir I do not like you for you have the smell of death
Your mare she is drenched with the scent of the slaughter.
So fly from me on thy haggard steed,
For I am not lost and I'm not in love with thee"

"Of course you're free to go
I know your mother waits at home
but first won't you grant me this small favour?
Take my horses bridle for to lead her to the stream
to drink while I fill my pail with water"

"Oh aye" (said she) "I'll guide thy steed
this I'll do for her thirst - and not for thee"

But as she took the bridle she looked up and caught his eye
"Jenny you have freed me from my master
the mare will lead you onwards through the darkest parts of hell
my debt is yours
Your life is hers"

"Oh Christ!" said she "Oh damned indeed!"
"This debt I'll pay through all my days
until some fellow take my place
and this deceit is done unto me
and only the lost will fall in love with me"
