Thread Name: BS: Resolutions for folk song characters
Subject: RE: BS: Resolutions for folk song characters
Never walk river banks
If there's a grave there, looking ready
For you know the odds don't look too good
Never court a fair ladye
If her family looks too shady
You'll likely wind up dead like in a ballad

In all the coffee houses down along main street
All the blood of the centuries comes gushing out in song
If it starts out 'come all ye', you know you'd better watch it
'Cause it's gonna get real messy and you know it won't be long

Sorry...
