Geordie
As I walked over London bridge
One morning that was foggy
I overheard a fair one say
"Pray, save the life of Geordie"
I saddled up my milk white stead
And I did ride miles 40
Far over and away to the lone castle fair
To pray for the life of Geordie
But Geordie was hanged from a mighty tree
With a chain of gold so weighty
For he was from a noble line
And he courted a virtuous lady!
I wish I was on yonder hill
Where kisses I've had often
I'd stab myself with a pointed blade
Beside poor Geordie's coffin
One morning that was foggy
I overheard a fair one say
"Pray, save the life of Geordie"
I saddled up my milk white stead
And I did ride miles 40
Far over and away to the lone castle fair
To pray for the life of Geordie
But Geordie was hanged from a mighty tree
With a chain of gold so weighty
For he was from a noble line
And he courted a virtuous lady!
I wish I was on yonder hill
Where kisses I've had often
I'd stab myself with a pointed blade
Beside poor Geordie's coffin
