THE LIGHT DRAGOON The Light Dragoon came over the hill, The moon was shining clearly, There was a young woman, sure she new him by his horse, Because she loved him dearly. Dearly, so dearly There was a young woman, sure she knew him by his horse Because she loved him dearly She took him by the bridle and, She led him to the stable, Here's hay and oats for your horse young man, Let him eat while he is able. Able so able Here's hay and oats for your horse young man Let him eat while he is able She took him in her own white hand, And led him to the table, Here's cakes and wine for you my love, Eat and drink while you are able. Able so able Here's cakes and wine for you my love Eat and drink while you are able She ran upstairs to make the bed, To make it soft and easy, How nimbly she jumped into the bad, To see if it lay easy. Easy, so easy How nimbly she jumped into the bad To see if it lay easy The Light Dragoon he ran upstairs, Put off his army trousers, How nimble he jumped into the bed, To see if it lay easy. Easy, so easy How nimbly he jumped into the bad To see if it lay easy Oh there they lay 'til the cock did crow, And the trumpets they were sounding, With her spirits high and her belly low, She ran home to her mammy. Mammy, her mammy With her spirits high and her belly low She ran home to her mammy Now where have you been all this long night, Inquired her anxious parents, Oh I've been along of the Light Dragoon, Because I love him dearly. Dearly, so dearly Oh I've been along of the Light Dragoon Because I love him dearly Child #297 From singing of Mike Waterson @English @soldier @seduction filename[ LGHTDRAG AG apr97 |
