Subject: Lyr Add: MANTLE OF GREEN From: MudGuard Date: 08 Nov 99 - 01:01 AM Here are the lyrics as sung by Aoife Clancy: MANTLE OF GREENMy love came to Dublin one fine sunday morning,My love came to Dublin to honour me there He wore a green ribbon wrapped round a green bonnet And I wore a bangle of gold in my hair. Now the leaves they were green on that bright sunday morining But now they have fallen, there's wind in the bough And I never asked him to buy me a ring Fall down very lightly, you leaves, on me now I will not ask the clergy for prayers in the chapel I'll not hear the minister saying his prayers. I'll go down to the river neath the birch trees and branches And ask them to raise up their arms in the air. Now the good girls they sleep in all their fine modesty. The bad girls they sleep in the hide of their shame. I lie alone in the wood by the river Till I see my true love return with my name. And I make him some shoes of the finest green leather I make him a cloth the finest you've seen, And he'll walk like a lord through the city of Dublin And I'll walk beside him in mantles of green. |
Subject: RE: LYR REQ: mantle of green From: MudGuard Date: 08 Nov 99 - 01:05 AM Last word on first line of second verse is to be "morning", not "morining". It's just another typo I found in my lyrics collection... MudGuard |
