Empty Hats - Two Magicians lyrics

A lady sits at her own front door, waiting on her man When by there came a lusty smith, with his hammer in his hand Saying,"You are such a maiden fair, all in your robes of red Will ya take me in yer arms, and have me in your bed?" "Away, away you cold blacksmith, what you do say is wrong Does thou think a la** like me can be had for just a song"? He sang, "Bide, lady bide, your lust for me don't hide This dusty smith will be your love, so lay aside your pride." So the lady she took out her wand, held it high in her hand She turned herself into a cloud, said "Catch me if you can!" So the blacksmith shook his hammer, and it turned to a magic stick So he became a lightning bolt for to zap into her quick He sang, "Bide, lady bide, your lust for me don't hide This dusty smith will be your love, so lay aside your pride." So the lady she turned into a fish, a-swimmin' in the brook So he became a fishing rod for to catch her with his hook But the lady she turned into a fly, flew up into the air So he became a hairy spider for to drag her into his lair (alt. verse) So the lady she turned into a fiddle, hid amidst a song So he became a bow and he played her all night long Singin', "Bide, lady bide, your lust for me don't hide This dusty smith will be your love, so lay aside your pride." Then the lady she turned into a rose, rosebud in the wood So he became a bumble bee for to sting her where she stood (Ouch!) But the lady she turned into a horse, dark as the night is black So he became a golden saddle for to climb onto her back Singin'"Bide, lady bide, your lust for me don't hide This dusty smith will be your love, so lay aside your pride." So the lady she turned into a man, leered up on him good So he became a bonny la**, and she took him where he stood, singin - "Bide, lady bide, your lust for me don't hide This dusty smith will be your love, so lay aside your pride."
