Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Acres of Ground (Eliza Carthy)
come in I will sing for you
what will you sing for me
I can sing you one
so listen to my one
One is, one is all alone
and ever more it will be so
counting the days till when
monday, tuesday and then
if i could see you i'd have you in my house and give you wine
wine for your love and time
wine for your love
come in I will sing for you
what will you sing for me
I can sing you two
so listen to my two
two in one will never be
it's feathers for you and down for me
one plus one will never be
and nobody knows but the devil and you and me
counting the days till when
monday, tuesday and then
if i could see you i'd have you in my house and give you wine
wine for your love and time
wine for your love
come in i will sing for you
what can you sing for me
i can sing you three
oh listen for my three
three, three, well it's good for me
well it's gone to sinners who paid his fee
three, three, well it's good for me
well it's gone to sinners who paid his fee
counting the days till when
monday, tuesday and then
oh if i could see you i'd have you in my house and give you wine
wine for your love and time
wine for your love
come in I will sing for you
what will you sing for me
I will sing you four
so listen to my four
four, four between the bed and the door
there is acres of ground i'd not noticed before
four, four between the bed and the door
there is acres of ground i'd not seen there before
counting the days till when
monday, tuesday and then
oh if i could see you i'd have you in my house and give you wine
wine for your love and time
wine for your love
wine for your love and time
wine for your love
