As I went out one morning |
| [00:16.670] |
To breathe the air around Tom Paine’s |
| [00:23.480] |
I spied the fairest damsel |
| [00:27.880] |
That ever did walk in chains |
| [00:33.420] |
I offer’d her my hand |
| [00:38.850] |
She took me by the arm |
| [00:44.540] |
I knew that very instant |
| [00:49.890] |
She meant to do me harm |
| [01:01.220] |
|
| [01:01.850] |
“Depart from me this moment” |
| [01:06.230] |
I told her with my voice |
| [01:11.670] |
Said she, “But I don’t wish to” |
| [01:17.250] |
Said I, “But you have no choice” |
| [01:23.140] |
“I beg you, sir,” she pleaded |
| [01:28.160] |
From the corners of her mouth |
| [01:33.910] |
“I will secretly accept you |
| [01:39.900] |
And together we’ll fly south” |
| [01:42.620] |
music |
| [01:51.740] |
Just then Tom Paine, himself |
| [01:55.720] |
Came running from across the field |
| [02:02.290] |
Shouting at this lovely girl |
| [02:06.420] |
And commanding her to yield |
| [02:11.990] |
And as she was letting go her grip |
| [02:18.150] |
Up Tom Paine did run, |
| [02:25.560] |
“I’m sorry, sir,” he said to me |
| [02:28.450] |
“I’m sorry for what she’s done” |
| [02:31.829] |
