Lyrics

[00:10.63] In Scarlet Town where I was born
[00:16.35] There was a fair maid dwelling
[00:22.45] Made every youth cried well the day
[00:28.45] Her name was Barbara Allen
[00:35.56]
[00:42.67] All in the merry month of May
[00:48.64] When green buds they were swelling
[00:54.14] Young Willy Grove on his death bed lay
[01:00.27] For love of Barbara Allen
[01:06.45] And slowly slowly she came up
[01:12.65] And slowly she came nigh him
[01:18.26] And all she said when there she came
[01:24.68] Young man I think you’re dyin’
[01:30.19] When he was dead and laid in grave
[01:36.69] Her heart was struck with sorrow
[01:42.37] Oh mother mother make my bed
[01:48.68] For I shall die tomorrow
[01:56.68]
[02:02.78] Farewell she said ye virgins all
[02:09.69] And shun the fault I fell in
[02:15.21] Henceforth thick warning by the fold
[02:21.92] Of cruel old Barbara Allen
