She leaned her back up against the thorn The sun shines down on Carlisle Wall Then she has a bonny babe born And the lion shall be lord of all She layed him beneath some marble stone The sun shines down on Carlisle Wall Thinking to go a maiden home And the lion shall be lord of all As she looked over her father's wall The sun shines down on Carlisle Wall She saw that pretty babe playing a ball And the lion shall be lord of all Oh bonny babe if you were mine The sun shines down on Carlisle Wall I'd dress you in that silk so fine And the lion shall be lord of all Oh mother mine when I was thine The sun shines down on Carlisle Wall I didn't see any of your silk so fine And the lion shall be lord of all Oh bonny babe pray tell to me
The sun shines down on Carlisle Wall The sort of d**h I shall have to die And the lion shall be lord of all Seven years of fish, fish in the flood The sun shines down on Carlisle Wall Seven years of bird in the wood And the lion shall be lord of all Seven years of tongue to the warning bell The sun shines down on Carlisle Wall Seven years in the flames of hell And the lion shall be lord of all Welcome, welcome fish in the flood The sun shines down on Carlisle Wall Welcome, welcome bird in the wood And the lion shall be lord of all And welcome tongue to the warning bell The sun shines down on Carlisle Wall But God keep me from the flames of hell And the lion shall be lord of all
