The Flandyke Shore — текст песни (John Wesley Harding)

I went unto my loves chamber window

Where I often had been before

Just to let her know unto flandyke shore

Unto flandyke shore

Never to return to england no more

Never to return to england no more



I went unto my loves chamber door

Where I never had been before

There I saw a light springing from her clothes

Springing from her clothes

Just as the morning sun when first arose

Just as the morning sun when first arose



As I was walking on the flandyke shore

Her own dear father I did meet

My daughter she is dead he cried

She is dead he cried

And shes broken her heart all for the love of thee

So I hove a bullet on to fair englands shore

On to fair englands shore

Just where I thought that my own true love did lay
