A holiday, a holiday, and the first one of the yearLord darlen's wife came into the church,The gospel for to hear.And when the meeting it was done, she cast her eyes aboutAnd there she saw little Matty Groves, walking in the crowdCome home with me, little Matty Groves, come home with me tonightCome home with me, little Matty Groves, and sleep with me till lightOh, I can't come home, I won't come home and sleep with you tonightBy the rings on your fingers I can tell you are my master's wifeBut if I am Lord Arlen 's wife, Lord Arlen's not at homeHe is out in the far cornfields bringing the yearlings homeAnd a servant who was standing by and hearing what was saidHe swore Lord Arlen he would know before the sun would setAnd in his hurry to carry the news, he bent his breast and ranAnd when he came to the broad millstream, he took off his shoes and he swamLittle Matty Groves, he lay down and took a little sleepWhen he awoke, Lord Arlen was standing at his feetSaying How do you like my feather bed and how do you like my sheetsHow do you like my lady who lies in your arms asleep? Oh, well I like your feather bed and well I like your sheetsBut better I like your lady gay who lies in my arms asleepWell, get up, get up, Lord Arlen cried, get up as quick as you canIt'll never be said in fair England that I slew a naked manOh, I can't get up, I won't get up, I can't get up for my lifeFor you have two long beaten swords and I not a pocket knifeWell it's true I have two beaten swords and they cost me deep in the purseBut you will have the better of them and I will have the worseAnd you will strike the very first blow and strike it like a manI will strike the very next blow and I'll kill you if I canSo Matty struck the very first blow and he hurt Lord Arlen soreLord Arlen struck the very next blow and Matty struck no moreAnd then Lord Arlen took his wife and he sat her on his kneeSaying Who do you like the best of us, Matty Groves or me?And then up spoke his own dear wife, never heard to speak so freeI'd rather a kiss from dead Matty's lips than you or your fineryLord Arlen he jumped up and loudly he did bawlHe struck his wife right through the heart and pinned her against the wallA grave, a grave, Lord Arlen cried, to put these lovers inBut bury my lady at the top for she was of noble kin
