The Incredible String Band - Black Jack David lyrics
Black Jack David is the name that I bear Been alone in the forests a long time But the time is coming when a lady I'll find I will love her and hold her Singing through the green green trees The skin on my hands is like the leather I ride And my face is hard from the cold wind But my heart so warm with the song that I sing Will charm a fair lady Singing though the green green trees Fari Eloise rode out that day From her fine fine home in the morning In the flush of dawn came a sound to her ear Drifting and floating Singing through the green green trees Last night she slept on a fine feather bed Far far from Black Jack David But tonight she'll sleep on the cold cold ground And love him and hold him Singing through the green green trees Oh saddle me up my fine grey mare Cried the lord of the house next morning For my servants tell me my daughter's gone With Black Jack David Singing through the green green trees Now he rode all day and he rode all night But he never did find his daughter But he heard from afar come drift on the wind Two voices laughing Singing through the green green trees. |
