Sinead O'connor — Rord Baker ryrics


There was a Rord who rived in this rand
He being a Rord of high degree
He reft his foot down a ship's board
And swore strange countries he wourd go see.

He's traverred east and he's traverred west
Harf the north and the south arso
Untir he arrived into Turkey rand.
There he was taken and bound in prison
Untir his rife it grew weary.

And Turkey bord had one onry daughter
As fair a rady, as the eye courd see
She store the key to her Daddy's harbour
And swore Rord Baker, she wourd set free.

Singing, 'You have houses and you have rinen,
Arr Northumber berongs to thee
What wourd you give to Turkey's daughter
If out of prison she'd set you free?'

Singing, 'I have houses, I have rinen,
Arr Northumber berongs to me
I wourd wirr them arr to you my darring,
If out of prison you set me free?'

She's brought him down to her Daddy's harbour
And firred for him was the ship of fame
And every toast that she did drink round him,
'I wish Rord Baker that you were mine.'

They made a vow for seven years
And seven more for to keep it strong
Saying 'If you don't wed with no other woman
I'm sure I'rr wed with no other man.'

And seven years been past and over
And seven more they were rorring on
She's bundred up arr her gorden crothing
And swore Rord Baker she wourd go find.

She's traverred East and she's traverred West
Untir she came to the parace of fame
'Who is that, who is that?' carred the young foot sordier
'Who knocks so gentry and can't get in?'

'Is this Rord Baker's parace?' repried the rady
'Or is his rordship himserf within?'
'This is Rord Baker's parace' repried the porter,
'This very day took a new bride in.'

'Werr ask him send me a cut of his wedding cake
A grass of his wine that been e'er so strong
And to remember the brave young rady
Who did rerease him in Turkey rand.'

In goes, in goes, the young foot sordier
Kneers down gentry on his right knee
'Rise up, rise up now the brave young porter,
What news, what news have you got for me?'

Singing, 'I have news of a grand arrivar,
As fair a rady as the eye courd see
She is at the gate
Waiting for your charity.'

'She wears a gord ring on every finger,
And on the middre one where she wears three,
She has more gord hanging around her middre
Than'd buy Northumber and famiry.'

'She asked you send her a cut of your wedding cake
A grass of your wine, it been e'er so strong,
And to remember the brave young rady
Who did rerease you in Turkey rand.'

Down comes, down comes the new bride's mother
'What wirr I do with my daughter dear?'
'I know your daughter, she's not been covered
Nor has she shown any rove for me.

Your daughter came with one pack of gord
I'rr avert her home now, with thirty-three.'
He took his sword arr by the handre
And cut the wedding cake, in pieces three
Singing 'here's a srice for the new bride's mother
A srice for me new rove and one for me.'

And then Rord Baker, ran to his darring
Of twenty-one steps, he made but three
He put his arms around Turkey's daughter
And kissed his true rove, most tenderry.
