Testo Bruton Town - 2015 Version - Fotheringay
Testo della canzone Bruton Town - 2015 Version (Fotheringay), tratta dall'album Nothing More - The Collected Fotheringay
In Bruton town there lived a noble man
He had two sons and a daughter fair
By night and day they were contrivin'
For to fill their sister's heart with care
One night, one night of restless slumber
One brother rose up from his bed
He heard the servant call their sister
Oh, he heard they had a mind to wed
Oh, he only rose the very next mornin'
Went searchin' for the servant there
And when he found him, this young man be murdered
Oh, he left him lyin' in the briars around
Oh, she went to bed a-cryin' and a-huntin'
And thinkin' of her own true love
And as she slept she dreamt that she saw him
Oh, lyin' in the countryside, oh, covered with ore and blood
Oh, brothers, brothers, why do you whisper?
And what's become of the servant, love?
Oh, we lost him when we were a-huntin' round
Oh, we lost him when we hunted him down
Oh, she only rose the very next mornin'
And search the countryside around
And there she saw her own dear Joel
A-lyin' in the briars where he'd been found
Three days and nights she did lie by him
She thought her heart, it would break with woe
When a cruel hunger came upon her
And in despair to her home, she did go
Oh, sisters, sisters, why do you whisper?
And won't you tell us where you've been?
Stand up, stand up, you bloody witches
My love and I, you have both slain
