[00:00.01] Nottamun Town -Jean Ritchie
[00:07.85] In Nottamun Town not a soul would look up
[00:13.365] Not a soul would look up
[00:16.315] Not a soul would look down
[00:19.345] Not a soul would look up
[00:22.315] Not a soul would look down
[00:25.525] To show me the way to fair Nottamun Town
[00:31.925] I rode a gray horse a mule called gray man
[00:37.955] Gray mane and gray tail a green stripe down her back
[00:44.335] Gray mane and gray tail a green stripe down her back
[00:50.873] There wasn't a hair on her be what was coal black
[00:57.163] She stood so still she threw me to the dirt
[01:03.302] She tore a my hide and she bruised my shirt
[01:09.402] From saddle to stirrup I mounted again
[01:15.262] And on my ten toes I rode over the plain
[01:21.492] Met the king and the queen and a company more
[01:27.692] A waking behind and a riding before
[01:33.821] Come a stark naked drummer a beating a drum
[01:39.661] With his heels in his bosom come marching along
[01:45.870] I bought me a quart to drive gladness away
[01:51.820] And to stifle the dust for it rained the whole day
[01:59.260] Sat down on a hard hot cold frozen stone
[02:05.440] Ten thousand stood round me and yet I's alone
[02:11.600] Took my hat in my hand for to keep my head warm
[02:17.830] Ten thousand got drowned that never was born
