The Ferryman's Daughter

Way deep down in the greenwood, ohA-rap, tap, tapping on a windowA young blade and a ramblin boyA-crossed the wide river to goThe river was wide, the river was deepAnd all within the cottage seemed asleep

By and by, a young girl cameBlinking sleep from her dark eyeShe put her finger to her lipSo young and yet not so shyThe river and deep, the river and wideHe went to the scullery and step inside

I tell to ye a rovin' taleOr recite to you a fableIf you will give to me some breadAnd a little hot soup if you're ableThe river is wide, the river is deepThe ferryman my father is asleep

Then she put on a cloak of woolAnd a pair of fine boots of deerskinLowering her pretty dark eyeWhen he caught a glimpse of her fair skinThe river is wide, the river is deepThe ferryman my father is asleep

He laid her down in the greenwood, ohSquirrel and a rabbit did scamperHe sang her the ancient a-roving taleAnd melody did enchant herThe river is wide, the river is deepThe ferryman her father lay asleep

They bid farewell by the riverbankHe looked long into her dark eyeAn otter splashed and quickly sankGreylag goose in the gray skyThe river is wide, the river is deepThe ferryman her father lay asleep
