Steeleye Span - Two Magicians lyrics
[Steeleye Span - Two Magicians lyrics]
As white as any milk
And he looked in at the window
As black as any silk
Hello, hello, hello
Hello you coal black smith
You have done me no harm
You never shall have my maidenhead
That I have kept so long
I'd rather die a maid
Ah, but then she said and be
Buried all in my grave than to have such a
Nasty, husky, dusky, fusky, musky
Coal black smith a maiden I will die chorus
She became a duck, a duck all on the stream
And he became a water dog
And fetched her back again
She became a star, a star all in the night
And he became a thundercloud and
Muffled her out of sight
She became a rose, a rose all in the wood
And he became a bumble bee and
Kissed her where she stood
She became a nun, a nun all dressed in white
And he became a canting priest and
Prayed for her by night
She became a trout, a trout all in the brook
And he became a feathered fly and
Catched her with his hook
She became a corpse
A corpse all in the ground
And he became a the cold clay
And smothered her all around
