How Come That Blood
How come that blood all over your shirt?
My son come tell it to me
It is the blood of my galant gray hawk who flies across the field
Got a gray hawk's blood and was never so red
My son come tell it to me
It is the blood of my galant greyhound who hunts the woods with me
Got a greyhound's blood and was never so red
My son come tell it to me
It is the blood of my galant gray mare I used to ride so gay
Got a gray mare's blood and was never so red
My son come tell it to me
It is the blood of my own dear brother who lately I have slain
What did you and him fall out about?
My son come tell it to me
I cut him down yon hazelnut tree it caused it for to be
And what you gonna do when your daddy finds out?
My son come tell it to me
I'll set my foot in yonder ship and I'll sail across the sea
What you gonna do with your pretty little wife?
My son come tell it to me
She'll set her foot in yonder ship and she'll sail along with me
And what you gonna do with the children three?
My son come tell it to me
I'll leave them here along with you to bear you company
I'll leave them here along with you to bear you company
And when you coming home?
My son come tell it to me
When the sun and the moon shines in the north hills and that will never be
When the sun and the moon shines in the north hills and that will never be
My son come tell it to me
It is the blood of my galant gray hawk who flies across the field
Got a gray hawk's blood and was never so red
My son come tell it to me
It is the blood of my galant greyhound who hunts the woods with me
Got a greyhound's blood and was never so red
My son come tell it to me
It is the blood of my galant gray mare I used to ride so gay
Got a gray mare's blood and was never so red
My son come tell it to me
It is the blood of my own dear brother who lately I have slain
What did you and him fall out about?
My son come tell it to me
I cut him down yon hazelnut tree it caused it for to be
And what you gonna do when your daddy finds out?
My son come tell it to me
I'll set my foot in yonder ship and I'll sail across the sea
What you gonna do with your pretty little wife?
My son come tell it to me
She'll set her foot in yonder ship and she'll sail along with me
And what you gonna do with the children three?
My son come tell it to me
I'll leave them here along with you to bear you company
I'll leave them here along with you to bear you company
And when you coming home?
My son come tell it to me
When the sun and the moon shines in the north hills and that will never be
When the sun and the moon shines in the north hills and that will never be
