Joseph Hathaway, Charles Kingsley
Down deary down
There was a knight and he was young a-riding along the way Sir
And there he met a lady fair among the stacks of hay Sir
Down deary down
Quote he shall you and I, Lady among the grass lay down oh
And I will take a special care of the rumpling of your gown oh
So she told him
If you will go along with me into my father's hall Sir
You shall enjoy my maiden's head and my estate and all Sir
Down deary down
So he mounted her on a milk white steed himself upon another
And then they rid upon the road like sister and like brother
Down deary down down deary down
And when they came to father's home all moulded all about Sir
She stepped straight within the gate and shut the young man out Sir
Down deary down
Here is a pursue of gold she said take it for your pain Sir
And I will send my father's men to go home with you again Sir
And if you meet a lady fair as you go by the town Sir
You must not fear the dewy grass or
The rumpling grass of her gown Sir
Down deary down down deary down
And if you meet a lady gay as you go by the hill Sir
Here is the moral of the story
If you will not when you may you shall not when you will Sir
Nina Simone, born Eunice Kathleen Waymon (1933-2003), was a legendary American singer-songwriter, pianist, and activist. Born in North Carolina to a deeply religious African American family, she displayed an extraordinary musical talent at an early age. After studying classical music at the Philadelphia Conservatory, Simone dedicated herself to jazz and blues, quickly becoming an iconic figure on the 1960s music scene. Her powerful and versatile voice, accompanied by her passionate piano playing, allowed her to address social and political issues with courage and sensitivity. Simone was a fervent supporter of civil rights, using her music as a tool of protest against racism and social injustice. Songs like «Mississippi Goddam» and «Four Women» became anthems of the fight for social justice. Her musical influence has been profound and lasting, inspiring generations of artists in various disciplines. Among her most important albums are *I Put a Spell on You* (1965) and *Wild Is the Wind* (1966).
