*****DO NOT ADD STRUMMING PATTERNS TO MY TABS***** Kate Rusby - The Cobbler’s Daughter [Intro] [Verse 1] I am a cobbler’s daughter I’m thought of rude and mean But a finer and a bonnier lass You have never seen I’ve plagued my father’s head For my life I wouldn’t wed And my mother’s in the prison ’cause of me [Verse 2] There was a handsome young man Who used to live by me If I went out if I went in He’d always follow me I never done rue the day And it happened as I say I took him to me chamber to see [Verse 3] I took him to me chamber Where we could be alone And knowing that me mother And me father were at home He kissed me on the cheek And I screamed ’til I was weak Me father came a running to the door [Verse 4] He’s jumped upon the young man As I was standing by But he brought his fist behind his head And thumped him in the eye Me mother heard the din Up the stairs she did begin With a broom for a weapon she held high [Instrumental] [Verse 5] Out ran the young man Unto the stairs straightway Me mother she was waiting Like a raging bull I’d say She’s hit him on the head And the young man fell like lead Quite dead upon the floor he lay [Verse 6] I am a cobbler’s daughter I’m thought of rude and mean But a finer and a bonnier lass You have never seen I’ve plagued my father’s head For my life I wouldn’t wed And my mother’s in the prison ’cause of me [Outro]
