Steeleye Span - The Prickly Bush lyrics
[Steeleye Span - The Prickly Bush lyrics]
Oh the prickly bush
It pricks my heart full sore
And if ever i'm out of the prickly bush
I'll never get in it any more
Hangman, oh hangman, hold your rope awhile
I think i see my father over yonder stile
Father did you bring me gold or
Have you brought any fee
For to save my body from the cold
Clay ground
And my neck from the gallows tree?
No i didn't bring you gold nor
Have i brought any fee
But i have come to see you
Hung upon the gallows tree
Hangman, oh hangman, hold your rope a while
I think i see my brother over yonder stile
Brother did you bring me gold or
Have you brought any fee
For to save my body from the cold
Clay ground
And my neck from the gallows tree?
No i didn't bring you gold nor
Have i brought any fee
But i have come to see you
Hung upon the gallows tree
Oh the prickly bush
It pricks my heart full sore
And if ever i'm out of the prickly bush
I'll never get in it any more
Oh the prickly bush
It pricks my heart full sore
And if ever i'm out of the prickly bush
I'll never get in it any more
Hangman, oh hangman, hold your rope a while
I think i see my sister
Coming over yonder stile
Sister did you bring me gold or
Have you brought any fee
For to save my body from the cold
Clay ground
And my neck from the gallows tree?
No i didn't bring you gold nor
Have i brought any fee
But i have come to see you
Hung upon the gallows tree
Oh the prickly bush
It pricks my heart full sore
And if ever i'm out of the prickly bush
I'll never get in it any more
Oh the prickly bush
It pricks my heart full sore
And if ever i'm out of the prickly bush
I'll never get in it any more
Hangman, oh hangman, hold your rope a while
I think i see my lover over yonder stile
Lover did you bring me gold or
Have you brought any fee
For to save my body from the cold
Clay ground
And my neck from the gallows tree?
Yes i have brought you gold
Yes i brought you the fee
And i've not come to see you
Hung upon the gallows tree
Oh the prickly bush
It pricks my heart full sore
And if ever i'm out of the prickly bush
I'll never get in it any more
Oh the prickly bush
It pricks my heart full sore
And if ever i'm out of the prickly bush
I'll never get in it any more
Oh the prickly bush
It pricks my heart full sore
And if ever i'm out of the prickly bush
I'll never get in it any more
Oh the prickly bush
It pricks my heart full sore
And if ever i'm out of the prickly bush
I'll never get in it any more
Oh the prickly bush
It pricks my heart full sore
And if ever i'm out of the prickly bush
I'll never get in it any more

I'll never get in it any more
Oh the prickly bush
It pricks my heart full sore
And if ever i'm out of the prickly bush
I'll never get in it any more
It pricks my heart full sore
And if ever i'm out of the prickly bush
I'll never get in it any more
