Lord Randal

Where have you been all the day my own dear darling boy
Where have you been all the day my own dear comfort and joy
I have been to my step mother
Make my bed mammy do
Make my bed mammy do

What did you get for your supper my own dear darling boy
What did you get for your supper my own dear comfort and joy
I got fish and I got broth
Make my bed mammy do
Make my bed mammy do

Where did she get the fish she gave you oh dear darling boy
Where did she get the fish she gave you oh dear comfort and joy
Hedges saught 'em and ditches caught 'em
Make my bed mammy do
Make my bed mammy do

Tell me what did your great hound do my own dear darling boy
Tell me what did your great hound do my own dear comfort and joy
There he swelled and there he died
Make my bed mammy do
Make my bed mammy do

I fear she's done you deadly wrong my own dear darling boy
I fear she's done you deadly wrong my own dear comfort and joy
She took me in and she did me slay
Make my bed mammy do
Make my bed mammy do

What will you leave for your mother my own dear darling boy
What will you leave for your mother my own dear comfort and joy
I'll leave her my house and my land
Make my bed mammy do
Make my bed mammy do

But what will you leave for your step mother oh dear darling boy
What will you leave for your step mother oh dear comfort and joy
Vine to be rope and there let her hang from the halter that hangs on the tree
For poisoning me

Where have you been all the day my own dear darling boy
Where have you been all the day my own dear comfort and joy
I have been to my step mother
Make my bed mammy do
Make my bed mammy do
