False Knight
Peter & Chris Coe, Open The Door And Let Us In, Trailer LER 2077, 1972. A Cheshire version.

Oh, where are you going ?
Said the False Knight to the Child On The Road
Oh, I'm going to my school
Said the bonny little girl of seven years

What go ye the forest (?????) ?
Said the False Knight to the Child On The Road
For to learn ... (???)
Said the bonny little girl of seven years

I wish you on the sea
Said the False Knight to the Child On The Road
And a good boat under me
Said the bonny little girl of seven years

I wish you on the land
Said the False Knight to the Child On The Road
And a good staff in my hand
Said the bonny little girl of seven years

I wish you were ...(?) on yonder tree
Said the False Knight to the Child On The Road
And a ladder under me
Said the bonny little girl of seven years

I think I hear the bell
Said the False Knight to the Child On The Road
Aye, and it's ringing you to Hell
Said the bonny little girl of seven years old
