Fairport Convention - Hexhamshire Lass Lyrics
Away with the buff and the blueAnd away with the cap and featherI want to see my lass who lives in HexhamshireOff with the . . . and over the moss and the mireI want to see my lass who lives in HexhamshireHer father loves her well, her mother loves her dearerI love them better than them both but, man, I can't get near herOff with the . . . and over the moss and the mireI want to see my lass who lives in HexhamshireIf only I could be lying there aside herWhile I must bide here, my arms'll be denied herOff with the . . . and over the moss and the mireI want to see my lass who lives in HexhamshireHer skin is like the silk and her hair is like the silverHer breasts are deep and cool, they'll warm when I get near herOff with the . . . and over the moss and the mireI want to see my lass who lives in HexhamshireAh, this love of mine, oh, this love, I am wearySleep I can't get none for thinking of my dearieOff with the . . . and over the moss and the mireI want to see my lass who lives in HexhamshireAway with the ?gilded? shield and away with the cap and featherI want to see my lass who lives in HexhamshireAway with the buff and the blueAway with the cap and featherI want to see my lass who lives in HexhamshireOff with the . . . and over the moss and the mireI want to see my lass who lives in Hexhamshire
