letra de william taylor - shank painters

[intro, singer 1]
william taylor was a brisk young sailor
full of heart and full of play
until his mind he did uncover
to a youthful lady, g-y

[verse 1, singer 1]
four and twenty british sailors met him on
the king’s highway
as he went for to be married
pressed he was and sent away

[chorus, both singers]
fa-la-re-de-dum da-ba-der-i-dideroo
fa-la-re-de-dum da-ba-di-ri-dae
fa-la-re-de-dum da-ba-der-i-dideroo
fa-la-re-de-dum da-ba-di-ri-dae

[verse 2, singer 1]
sailor’s clothing she put on
and went on board a man o’ war
pretty little fingers, long and slender
they were smeared with pitch and tar
on the ship therе was a battle
she amongst the rеst did fight
the wind blew off her silver b-ttons
her br–sts were bared into the night
[chorus, both singers]
fa-la-re-de-dum da-ba-der-i-dideroo
fa-la-re-de-dum da-ba-di-ri-dae
fa-la-re-de-dum da-ba-der-i-dideroo
fa-la-re-de-dum da-ba-di-ri-dae

[verse 3, both singers]
when the captain did discover
he said “fair maid, what brought you here?”
“sir, i’m seeking william taylor
pressed he was by you last year”
“oh, if you rise up in the morning
early at the break of day
there you’ll find young william taylor
walking with his lady g-y”

[chorus, both singers]
fa-la-re-de-dum da-ba-der-i-dideroo
fa-la-re-de-dum da-ba-di-ri-dae
fa-la-re-de-dum da-ba-der-i-dideroo
fa-la-re-de-dum da-ba-di-ri-dae

[verse 4, singer 1]
she rose early in the morning
early at the break of day
there she spied young william taylor
walking with his lady g-y
she procured a pair of pistols
on the ground where she did stand
there she shot poor william taylor
and the lady at his right hand
[chorus, both singers]
fa-la-re-de-dum da-ba-der-i-dideroo
fa-la-re-de-dum da-ba-di-ri-dae
fa-la-re-de-dum da-ba-der-i-dideroo
fa-la-re-de-dum da-ba-di-ri-dae

[verse 5, both singers]
now said the captain
“my fair lady, come and tell me what you’ve done”
“i have shot young william taylor with a double-barreled gun”
then the captain did behold her
was well-pleased with what she’d done
he made her a boat commander
of the ship and all it’s men

[chorus, both singers]
fa-la-re-de-dum da-ba-der-i-dideroo
fa-la-re-de-dum da-ba-di-ri-dae
fa-la-re-de-dum da-ba-der-i-dideroo
fa-la-re-de-dum da-ba-di-ri-dae
