Testo Bruton Town - Sandy Denny
Testo della canzone Bruton Town (Sandy Denny), tratta dall'album Live At The BBC[Package]
In Bruton town there lived a nobleman
He had two sons and a daughter fair
By night and day they were contriving
To fill their sister's heart with care
One night, one night of restless slumber
One brother rose up from his bed
He had the servant called, their sister
For he heard they had a mind to wed
Oh yeah, he rose the very next morning
Went searching for the servant man
And when he found him, this young man he murdered
Oh, he left him lying in the briars around
Oh, she went to bed a-crying and lamenting
And thinking of her own true love
And as she slept she dreamt that she saw him
Oh, lying in the countryside, all covered with gore and blood
Oh brothers, brothers, why do you whisper?
And what's become of the servant man?
Oh, we lost him when we were a-hunting, oh
Oh, we lost him where he won't ever be found
Oh, she early rose the very next morning
And searched the countryside around
And there she saw her own dear Joanne
A-lying in the briars where he'd been found
Three days and nights he'd been lying
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 sister, sister, why do you whisper?
And won't you tell us where you've been?
Stand up, stand up, you bloody butchers
My love and I you have both slain
