[Verse]
C G Am
In Bruton town there lived a farmer
C D Em
Who had two sons and a daughter dear
C G Am
By day and night they were conspiring
G Am
To fill their parents' heart with fear
[Verse]
C G Am
One brother said unto the other
C D Em
“I think our servant courts our sister dear
C G Am
I'll put an end to all their courtship
G Am
I'll send him silent to his grave”
[Verse]
C G Am
They ask-ed him to go a-hunting
C D Em
Without any fear or strife
C G Am
And these two bold and wicked villains
G Am
They took away this young man's life
[Verse]
C G Am
And in the ditch, there was no water
C D Em
Where only bush and briars grew
C G Am
They could not hide the bloody slaughter
G Am
So in the ditch his body they threw
[Verse]
C G Am
When they return-ed home from hunting
C D Em
She ask-ed for her servant man
C G Am
“I ask because I see you whisper
G Am
So brothers tell me if you can”
[Verse]
C G Am
“Oh, sister, sister, you do offend me
C D Em
Because you so examine me
C G Am
We've lost him where we've been a-hunting
