: I have a snipet of a song that I'm
: trying to track down. If you have
: ever heard of this or know the rest,
: let me know:
: Said the father to the daughter
: what makes you so lament
: there's many a lad in our town
: who'll make your heart content
:
: there's not a lad in our town
: not a lord nor duke said she
: since the raging seas and stormy
: winds parted my love and me
:
: No hankerchief shall bind my head
: No comb go through my hair
: No firebright nor candle light
: shall view my beauty fair
:
: and neither shall I marry
: until the day I die
: since the stormy seas and raging
: winds
: parted my love and I
:
: since he was drowned at sea.
:
: I know the tune but can't remember
: the lyrics or the artist I heard
: sing it. Any help?
:
:
: I think I heard this as a child but
: only remember those lyrics printed
: above.
