Tailors Daughter
Rankin Family

Fell in love with the tailor's daughter

I fell hard head over heels

She showed me to her mother's parlour

Then we walked up the tailor's stairs

We courted well, we courted easy

Courted well from spring to fall

That tailor's daughter had me a-dreaming

Visions of the wedding

hall

Lay me down in sheets of linen

If you please I'll stay all night

Come with me I'll dance at your wedding

Around to the left and around to the right

He'd stitch for her the finest gown

Pure silk fashioned like no other

They would come from miles around

For to see the tailor's daughter

With music in the village hall

You would hear the church bell ringing

Food and drink for one and all

Every songbird singing

Lay me down in sheets of linen

If you please I'll stay all night

Come with me I'll dance at your wedding

Around to the left and around to the right

I awoke in a far off place

So alone and mistaken

She'd gone off on the wedding night

Left me forsaken

I'm drifting high, I'm drifting low

Flowing out like water

Looking up down below

Searching for the tailor's daughter

Lay me down in sheets of linen

If you please I'll stay all night

Come with me I'll dance at your wedding

Around to the left and around to the right

Lay me down in sheets of linen

If you please I'll stay all night

Come with me I'll dance at your wedding

Around to the left and around

Around to the left and around

Around to the left and around

To the right
