letra de 'twas within a furlong - l'arpeggiata
[verse 1]
’twas within a furlong
of edinborough town
in the rosy time of year
when the gr-ss was down
bonny jocky blithe and g-y
said to jenny making hay
“let’s sit a little, dear
and prattle. ’tis a sultry day”
he long had courted
the black-brown maid
but jocky was a wag
and would ne’er consent to wed
which made her pish and pooh
and cry out “it will not do
i cannot, cannot, cannot
wonnot, wonnot buckle to”
[verse 2]
he had told her marriage
was grown a mere joke
and that no one wedded now
but the scoundrel folk
“yet, my dear, thou should’st prevail
but i know not what i ail
i shall dream of clogs and silly dogs
with bottles at their tail”
“but i’ll give thee gloves
and a bongrace to wear
and a pretty filly-foal
to ride out and take the air”
“if thou ne’er wil’t pish and pooh
and cry ‘it ne’er will do’
i cannot, cannot, cannot
wonnot, wonnot buckle to”
[verse 3]
“that you’ll give me trinkets,”
cried she, “i believe”
“but, ah! what in return
must your poor jenny give”
“when my maiden treasure’s gone
i must gang to london town
and roar and rant, and patch and paint
and kiss for half-a-crown”
“each drunken bully
oblige for pay
and earn a hated living
in an odious, fulsome way”
“no, no, no, it ne’er shall do
for a wife i’ll be to you
or i cannot, cannot, cannot
wonnot, wonnot buckle to”
“or i cannot, cannot, cannot
wonnot, wonnot buckle to”
“or i cannot, cannot, cannot
wonnot, wonnot buckle to”
