The Three Ravens - Child 26
There were three ravens on a tree
A downe a downe, a derrie downe
There were three ravens on a tree
Hey ho...
The middlemost raven says to me
There lies a dead man at yon tree
A downe, a downe, a derrie downe, hey ho
There comes a lady full of woe
A downe a downe, a derrie downe
There comes his lady full of woe
Hey ho...
There comes his lady full of woe
Riding fast as she can go
A downe, a downe, a derrie downe, hey ho
Who's this that's killed my own true love
A downe a downe, a derrie downe
Who's this that's killed my own true love
Hey ho...
Who's this that's killed my own true love
I hope in heaven he'll never rest
Nor e'er enjoy that blessed place
A downe, a downe, a derrie downe, hey ho
