๐ Lyrics
In Scarlet Town where I was born
There was a fair maid dwelling
Made ev'ry youth cry "Well-a-day"
Her name was Barbara-aran
All in the merry month of May
When green buds they were swelling
Young Jimmy Groan on his death-bed lay
For love of Barbara-aran
So slowly, slowly she came up
And slowly she came nigh him
And all she said when there she came
"Young man, I think you're dying"
When he was dead and laid in grave
Her heart was struck with sorrow
"O mother, mother, make my bed
For I shall die to-morrow"
"Farewell," she said, "ye virgins all
And shun the fault I fell in
And spurn take warning by the fall
Of cruel Barbara-aran"
There was a fair maid dwelling
Made ev'ry youth cry "Well-a-day"
Her name was Barbara-aran
All in the merry month of May
When green buds they were swelling
Young Jimmy Groan on his death-bed lay
For love of Barbara-aran
So slowly, slowly she came up
And slowly she came nigh him
And all she said when there she came
"Young man, I think you're dying"
When he was dead and laid in grave
Her heart was struck with sorrow
"O mother, mother, make my bed
For I shall die to-morrow"
"Farewell," she said, "ye virgins all
And shun the fault I fell in
And spurn take warning by the fall
Of cruel Barbara-aran"
