Eighteen Years Old歌词

[00:01.40]
[00:06.60]I'm eighteen years old today, mama
[00:10.02]and I'm longing to be wed.
[00:14.07]So buy for me a young man to comfort me, she said.
[00:21.22]You must buy for me a young man
[00:24.91]who will stay with me all night.
[00:28.31]And I'll roll him in my arms
[00:32.61]he'll be my heart's delight.
[00:35.71]
[00:35.96]Ah, hold your tongue, dear daughter then
[00:39.61]or your folds I will pull down.
[00:43.29]Your silks and satins I will pull down
[00:46.85]you must wear your morning gown.
[00:50.58]I'll send you to the meadows
[00:54.40]for to rake and mow the hay.
[00:57.85]With your pike and shaft all in your hand
[01:01.75]you must earn your drink and take.
[01:12.44]
[01:12.69]Ah, hold your tongue, dear daughter then
[01:16.44]I was forty before I wed.
[01:20.38]Although it was late, I thought it no weight
[01:23.88]to carry my maidenhead.
[01:27.41]Well that may be the way with you, mama
[01:31.07]but it isn't the way with me.
[01:34.56]For I'm young and airy, light and crazy
[01:38.68]and married I long to be.
[02:11.22]
[02:11.47]Ah, hold your tongue, dear daughter then
[02:15.13]and I'll buy for you a man.
[02:19.01]A man for me? Oh, mother, she said
[02:22.53]you must hasten, you must you can.
[02:26.09]The sooner the better, oh mother
[02:28.97]she said, you must hasten a man to me.
[02:33.18]For I'm young and airy, light and contrary
[02:41.21]and married I long to be.
