The Greencards - The Ballad of Kitty Brown lyrics
Come listen to me and I’ll sing you a song Of a man called tommy tom tom He worked in the field by night and by day A finner man as any they would say Oh don’t go to town tommy’s mother did cry The nightingale is singing and I fear you will die Oh, poor tommy tom tom Go easy now there’s trouble yet to come Kitty Brown’s husband had gone off to war Beauty no man could endure Come Friday night when the dance would begin She’d give her hand to any man at all And when she took Tommy’s hand so they say Poor Tommy was lost in her dark eyes so grey Oh, poor Tommy Tom Tom Go easy now there’s trouble yet to come That night as the moon? shown cold clear and bright A soldier returned from the war To find kitty brown in the arms of a man She swore he had made her to lie down Well, the sound of a gun rang cold across the floor One single shot and never no more Oh, poor Tommy Tom Tom Your troubles and your life are all but done The jury declared the soldier go free A crime of love the judge did decree Now Tommy’s mother she cries o’er his grave And the nightingale sings a mournful song Oh, poor Tommy Tom Tom Rest easy now your troubles are all done |
