| [00:01.04] |
O the Streams Of rovin' Nancy |
| [00:05.26] |
divide in three parts |
| [00:08.76] |
Where the young men and maidens |
| [00:13.19] |
they meet their sweethearts |
| [00:16.81] |
It's the drinking of good liquor |
| [00:21.49] |
that makes my heart sing |
| [00:24.98] |
And the noise in the valley |
| [00:29.41] |
make the rocks for to ring. |
| [00:33.72] |
At the top of this mountain |
| [00:38.02] |
my love's castle stands |
| [00:41.77] |
And it's overbuilt with ivory |
| [00:46.32] |
on yonder black sand |
| [00:50.01] |
Fine arches, fine porches |
| [00:54.62] |
like diamonds so bright |
| [00:57.99] |
It's a beacon for a sailor |
| [01:02.36] |
on a dark winter's night. |
| [01:08.98] |
On yonder high mountain |
| [01:13.12] |
the wild fowl do fly |
| [01:16.92] |
And it's one in amongst them |
| [01:21.42] |
that files very high |
| [01:25.22] |
If I had them in my hands |
| [01:29.65] |
mere diamonds per grand |
| [01:33.21] |
And soon I would secure her |
| [01:37.70] |
by the sleight of my hand. |
| [01:43.75] |
|
| [02:06.63] |
At the base of this mountain |
| [02:11.01] |
a river runs clear |
| [02:14.57] |
And a ship from the Indies |
| [02:19.18] |
it once anchored there. |
| [02:22.86] |
With her red flags a-flying |
| [02:27.61] |
the beating of her drum |
| [02:31.10] |
Sweet instruments of music |
| [02:35.15] |
and the firin' of her gun. |
| [02:39.40] |
O the streams of lovely Nancy |
| [02:43.89] |
divide in three parts |
| [02:47.64] |
Where the young men and maidens |
| [02:52.19] |
they meet their sweethearts |
| [02:55.89] |
It's the drinking of good liquor |
| [03:00.51] |
that makes my heart sing |
| [03:04.02] |
And the noise in the valley |
| [03:08.20] |
make the rocks for to ring. |
