letra de the bad girl's lament - wade hemsworth
[verse 1]
as i walked down to st. james hospital
st. james hospital early one day
i spied my only fairest daughter
wrapped up in white linen as cold as the clay
[chorus]
so beat your drums and play the fife lowly
and play the dead march as you carry me along
take me to the churchyard and lay the sod over me
i am a young maid and i know i’ve done wrong
[verse 2]
once in the street, i used to look handsome
once in the street, i used to dress g-y
first to the ale house, then to the dance hall
then to the poor house, now to my grave
[chorus]
so beat your drums and play the fife lowly
and play the dead march as you carry me along
take me to the churchyard and lay the sod over me
i am a young maid and i know i’ve done wrong
[verse 3]
send for the preacher to pray o’er my body
send for the doctor to heal up my wounds
send for the young man i first fell in love with
that i might see him before i pass on
[chorus]
so beat your drums and play the fife lowly
and play the dead march as you carry me along
take me to the churchyard and lay the sod over me
i am a young maid and i know i’ve done wrong
[verse 4]
let six pretty maidens with a bunch of red roses
six pretty maidens to sing me a song
six pretty maidens with a bunch of red roses
to lay on my coffin as they carry me along
[chorus]
so beat your drums and play the fife lowly
and play the dead march as you carry me along
take me to the churchyard and lay the sod over me
i am a young maid and i know i’ve done wrong
