House Carpenter
作詞：Dawn Louise Mccarthy, Traditional
Well, met, well, met my own true love
Well, met, well, met cried he
I've just returned from the salt salt sea
And it's all for the love of thee
Come in, come in my own true love
And have a seat with me
For it's been three quarters of a long, long year
Since together we have been
I can't come in and I can't sit down
I haven't but a moment's time
But I hear you're married to the house carpenter
So your love will never be mine
And I could've married with the king's daughter there
So free she was with me
But I forsook all the crowns and gold
And it's all for the love of thee
If you would have married with the king's daughter there
I'm sure you are to blame
And it's now I've married to the house carpenter
And I'm sure he's a fine young man
Well, will you forsake your house carpenter
And come away with me?
I'll take you down to where the grass grows green
Down by the sweet Dundee

So she picked up her tine wee babe
And kisses gave it three
Saying stay right here my sweet, sweet dear
And keep your father company
Well, they hadn't been on ship but about two weeks
I'm sure it was not three
When she espied his cloven foot
And began to weep most bitterly
Are you weeping for your house and land
Or are you weeping for your store
Or are you weeping for your house carpenter
Whose face you'll never see no more?
No, I'm not weeping for my house and land
I'm not weeping for my store
It's now I'm weeping for my soul, so dear
Whose purity I'll never see no more
Well, they hadn't been on ship for about three weeks
I'm sure it was not four
When he stomped his foot and down she sank
And sank to arise no more
Well, met, well, met my own true love love
Well met, well, met cried he
I've just returned to the salt salt sea
And it's all for the love of thee
