Judges and Juries

Judges And Juries – Words trad & K.Rusby/Tune K.Rusby

Farewell to all judges and juries,

My true love no more I will see,

Transported I am, a heartbroken man,

Sent over the fierce raging sea.

Farewell, farewell, one final farewell,

Sent over the fierce raging sea.

I was never more glad than with my love,

When I was settled and free,

Now tried for a thief, I only feel grief,

No more your sweet face I will see.

Farewell, farewell, one final farewell,

No more your sweet face I will see.

Oh if I had the wings of a free bird,

I’d fly over land and the sea,

I’d go back to the charms, and those sweet open arms,

My poor heart once more filled with glee.

Farewell, farewell, one final farewell,

My poor heart once more filled with glee.

If ever I come from the ocean,

It’s riches I’ll bring to my dear,

I’d buy her all things, ten thousand gold rings,

I’d cross that salt sea without fear.

Farewell, farewell, one final farewell,

I’d cross that salt sea without fear.

Farewell, farewell, one final farewell,

I’d cross that salt sea without fear.
