Track 1 - Maid Of Constant Sorrow
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
I am a maid of constant sorrow
I've seen trials all of my days
I'm going back to California
Place where I was partly raised
[Verse 2]
Your friends may say that I'm a stranger
My face they'll never see no more
There is but one promise that's given
I'll sail on this golden shore
[Verse 3]
All through this world I'm bound to ramble
Through sun and wind and driving rain
I'm bound to ride the western railway
Perhaps I'll take the very next train
[Instrumental]
[Verse 4]
I am a maid of constant sorrow
I've seen trials all of my days
I'm going back to California
Place where I was partly raised

Track 2 - The Prickilie Bush
CAPO: 2nd Fret
[Intro]
[Chorus]
Oh the prickilie bush
It pricks my heart full sore
If I ever get out of the prickilie bush
I'll never get in it anymore
[Verse 1]
Hangman stay your rope
Will you stay it for a while
I think I see my mother coming
Riding over yonder stile
[Verse 2]
Mother did you bring me gold
Or silver to pay my fee
For to save my body from the cold clay ground
My neck from the gallows tree
[Verse 3]
I didn't bring you gold
Or silver to pay your fee
But I have come to see you hang
On the gallows tree
[Chorus]
Oh the prickilie bush
It pricks my heart full sore
If I ever get out of the prickilie bush
I'll never get in it anymore
[Verse 4]
Hangman stay your rope
Will you stay it for a while
I think I see my father coming
Over yonder stile
[Verse 5]
Father did you bring me gold
Or silver to pay my fee
Or have you come to see me hang
On the gallows tree
[Verse 6]
I didn't bring ya gold
Or silver to pay your fee
Your mother and I have come today
To see you on the gallows tree
[Chorus]
Oh the prickilie bush
It pricks my heart full sore
If I ever get out of the prickilie bush
I'll never get in it anymore
[Verse 7]
Hangman stay your rope
Once more for a while
I think I see my darling coming
Over yonder stile
[Verse 8]
Darling did you bring me gold
Or silver to pay my fee
For to save my body from the cold clay ground
My neck from the gallows tree
[Verse 9]
I brought ya gold
And silver to pay your fee
I did not come to see you hang
On the gallows tree
[Chorus]
Oh the prickilie bush
It pricks my heart full sore
But now that I'm out of the prickilie bush
I'll never get in it anymore

Track 3 - Wild Mountain Thyme
CAPO: 1st Fret
[Verse 1]
N.C.
Oh the summer time is coming
And the leaves are sweetly turning
And the wild mountain thyme
Blooms around the purple heather
Will you go Laddie go?
[Chorus]
And we'll all go together
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the purple heather
Will you go Laddie go?
[Verse 1]
N.C.
If my true love will not go
I will surely find another
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the purple heather
Will you go Laddie go?
[Chorus]
And we'll all go together
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the purple heather
Will you go Laddie go?

Track 4 - Tim Evans
CAPO: 1st Fret
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Tim Evans was a prisoner
Within his prison cell
And those who read about his crime
They damned his soul to hell
Saying "Go down you murderer go down"
[Verse 2]
For the murderer of his own dear wife
And the killing of his child
The jury found him guilty
And the hanging judge he smiled
Saying "Go down you murderer go down"
[Verse 3]
Tim Evans pleaded innocent
And swore by him on high
He never killed his own dear wife
Or caused his child to die
Saying "Go down you murderer go down"
[Verse 4]
They moved him out at 6 o'clock
To his final flowery dell
And day and night two guards were there
And never left his cell
Saying "Go down you murderer go down"
[Verse 5]
Sometimes they played cards with him
Solo and Pontoon
To stop him brooding on the ropes
That was to be his doom
Saying "Go down you murderer go down"
[Verse 6]
The Governor came in one day
With the chaplain by his side
Said your appeal has been turned down
Prepare yourself to die
Saying "Go down you murderer go down"
[Verse 7]
Tim Evans walked in the prison yard
The guards walked behind
He saw the sky above the wall
And knew no peace of mind
Saying "Go down you murderer go down"
[Verse 8]
They fit the rope around his neck
Buckle behind his ear
The prison bell was tolling
But Tim Evans did not hear
Saying "Go down you murderer go down"
[Verse 9]
A thousand men were cursing
And banging on the doors
But Tim Evans could not hear them
He was deaf for evermore
Saying "Go down you murderer go down"
[Verse 10]
They sent Tim Evans to the drop
For a crime he didn't do
Twas Christy was the murderer
The judge and jury too
Saying "Go down you murderer go down"
==================================================================
Track 5 - Sailor's Life
CAPO: 4th Fret
[Intro]
[Chorus]
Oh a sailor's life is a weary life
For he robs the girls of their delight
Causes them to weep causes them to mourn
Loss of a true love never to return
[Verse 1]
Oh father father build me a boat
And on the world's oceans I will float
Hail each captain as I pass by
There I'll ask for my sailor boy
[Verse 2]
Oh captain captain tell me true
Does my own Willie sail with you?
Tell me soon to give me joy
None will I have but my sailor boy
[Verse 3]
Oh no kind lady he's not here
He drowned in the gulf and we buried him there
Upon the island as we passed by
There we left your sailor boy
[Verse 4]
Oh she rung her hands and tore her hair
Just like some lady in great despair
Called for a chair to sit her down
Penningdon for to write it down
[Verse 5]
Oh dig my grave wide and deep
Put a marble stone at the head and feet
On my grave a turtle dove
Tell the world I died for my love
[Chorus]
Oh a sailor's life is a weary life
For he robs the girls of their delight
Causes them to weep causes them to mourn
Loss of a true love never to return
==================================================================
Track 6 - Bold Fenian Men
[Verse 1]
'Twas down by the glenside I met an old woman
A-plucking young nettles nor saw I was coming
I listened awhile to the song she was humming
Glory O Glory O to the bold Fenian men
[Verse 2]
'Tis fifty long years since I saw the moon beaming
And strong manly forms and their eyes with hope gleaming
I see them again sure through all my days dreaming
Glory O Glory O to the bold Fenian men
[Verse 3]
When I was a colleen their marching and drilling
Awoke by the glenside sounds awesome and thrilling
But they loved dear old Ireland and to die they were willing
Glory O Glory O to the bold Fenian men
[Verse 4]
Some died by the glenside some died amid strangers
And wise men have told us their cause was a failure
But they stood by old Ireland and never feared danger
Glory O Glory O to the bold Fenian men
[Verse 5]
I passed on my way god be praised that I met her
Be life long or short I shall never forget her
And we may have great men but we'll never have better
Glory O Glory O to the bold Fenian men
==================================================================
Track 7 - Wars Of Germany
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Oh woe be to the orders
That marched my love away
And woe be to the bitter tears
I shed upon this day
[Verse 2]
And woe be to the bloody wars
Of high Germany
For they've carried off my own true love
Left a broken heart to bleed
[Verse 3]
The drums beat in the morning
Before the break of day
And the wee wee pipes played loud and shrill
While yet the morn was grey
[Verse 4]
And the bonnie flags were all unfurled
Was a gallant sight to see
But sorrow for my soldier lad
Who marched to Germany
[Verse 5]
Oh woe be to the orders
That marched my love away
And woe be to the bitter tears
I shed upon this day
[Verse 6]
And woe be to the country
Where our men are forced to be
And woe be to the foreign wars
That stole my love from me
==================================================================

If he ain’t goin’ away he’d be livin’ there still

He said "Old woman you’re a hell of a load"
Daddy be gay if you can be

O daddy be gay
He carried her down to the gates of Hell
Said "Rake up the coals and we’ll roast her well"

One poor little devil peeked over the wall
He said "Take her home daddy she’ll murder us all"

O daddy be gay
The Devil he hoisted her up on his back
And home again with her in a pack

The old woman went a whistlin’ over the hill
O daddy be gay

"The Devil won’t have me I wonder who will"

We can go down to Hell and come back again
Daddy be gay if you can be

[Intro]
[Verse 1]
I know where I'm going
And I know who's going with me
I know who I love
And the Devil knows who I'll marry
[Verse 2]
I have stockings of silk
Shoes of bright green leather
Combs to buckle my hair
And a ring for every finger
[Verse 3]
Feather beds are soft
Painted rooms are bonnie
I would trade them all
For my handsome winsome Johnny
[Verse 4]
Some say he's bad
I say he's bonnie
Fairest of them all
Is my handsome winsome Johnny
[Verse 5]
I know where I'm going
And I know who's going with me
I know who I love
The Devil knows who I'll marry

Track 10 - John Riley
CAPO: 2nd Fret
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
A fair young maid was in her garden
Strange young man came riding by
He said "Fair maid will you marry me?"
And this answer was her reply
[Verse 2]
"Oh no kind sir I cannot marry thee
For I’ve a love and he sails the sea
And though he’s been gone for seven years
Still he will return to me"
[Verse 3]
"Well what if he’s in some battle slain
Or if he’s been drowned in the deep salt sea
Or if he’s found another love
And he and his love both married be"
[Verse 4]
"If he’s in some battle slain
Then I shall die when the moon doth wane
And if he’s drowned in the deep salt sea
Still I’m true to his memory"
[Verse 5]
"And if he’s found another love
And he and his love both married be
I wish them health and happiness
Where they live across the sea"
[Verse 6]
He picked her up in his arms so strong
And kisses he gave her one two three
Said "Weep no more my own true love
I am your long lost John Riley"
Said "Weep no more my own true love
I am your long lost John Riley"
==================================================================
Track 11 - Pretty Saro
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Down in some lone valley in a lonesome place
Where the wild birds all whistle and their notes do increase
Farewell Pretty Saro I must bid you adieu
And I'll dream of Pretty Saro wherever I go
[Verse 2]
My love she won't have me and I understand
She wants a rich merchant and I have no land
I cannot maintain her I've no silver and gold
Can't give her the nice things that a big house will hold
[Verse 3]
But if I were a merchant and I could write a fine hand
And I' write my love letter that she' understand
I'd write it by the river where the waters o'erflow
And I'll dream of Pretty Saro wherever I go
==================================================================
Track 12 - The Rising Of The Moon
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Ah then tell me Sean O'Farrell
Tell me why you're hurrying so
Hush my boy oh hush and listen
And his eyes were all aglow
I bear orders from the captain
Get you ready quick and soon
For the pikes must be together
At the rising of the moon
[Verse 2]
Ah then tell me Sean O'Farrell
Where the gatherin' is to be
In the old spot by the river
Right well known to you and me
One thing more for signal token
Whistle up the marchin' tune
With your sword upon your shoulder
At the rising of the moon
[Verse 3]
Rumours passed along the valley
Like a banshee's lonely croon
And a thousand blades were flashin'
At the rising of the moon
[Verse 4]
All along the singing river
That dark mass of men were seen
Far above their shining weapons
Hung their own immortal green
Death to every foe and traitor
Foreign strike the marchin' tune
And hurrah me boys for Ireland
Tis the rising of the moon
[Verse 5]
Well they fought for poor old Ireland
And full bitter was their fate
Oh what glorious pride and sorrow
Fill the name of ninety-eight
Yet thank god while hearts are beating
Foreign manhood's burnin' noon
We shall follow in their footsteps
At the rising of the moon
[Verse 6]
Death to every foe and traitor
Foreign strike the marchin' tune
And hurrah me boys for freedom
Tis the rising
Tis the rising of the moon
