Barbara Dickson - Donal Og lyrics

And if you should go across the water Take me with you to be your partner At fair and market you'll be well looked after And you shall sleep with the Greek King's daughter Oh Donal Og, you'll not find me lazy Like many a high born expensive lady I'll do your milking, I'll nurse your baby And if you're set on, I'll defend you bravely I saw you first on a Sunday evening Before the Easter, as I was kneeling 'Twas of Christ's pa**ion that I was reading But my mind was on you, and my own heart bleeding Black as the sloe is the heart that's in me Black as the coal is the grief that blinds me Black as the bootprint on shining hallway 'Twas you that blackened it, ever and alway For you took what's before me and what's behind me Took East and West when you would not mind me Sun, moon and stars from my sky have been taken And God as well, or I'm much mistaken
