Tailor's Daughter Lyrics - Singles - Rankins

(Jimmy Rankin) 

Fell in love with the tailor's daughter 

I fell hard head over heels 

She showed me to her mother's parlour 

Then we walked up the tailor's stairs 

We courted well, we courted easy 

Courted well from spring to fall 

That tailor's daughter had me a-dreaming 

Visions of the wedding hall 

Lay me down in sheets of linen 

If you please I'll stay all night 

Come with me I'll dance at your wedding 

Around to the left and around to the right 

He'd stitch for her the finest gown 

Pure silk fashioned like no other 

They would come from miles around 

For to see the tailor's daughter 

With music in the village hall 

You would hear the church bell ringing 

Food and drink for one and all 

Every songbird singing 

Lay me down in sheets of linen 

If you please I'll stay all night 

Come with me I'll dance at your wedding 

Around to the left and around to the right 

I awoke in a far off place 

So alone and mistaken 

She'd gone off on the wedding night 

Left me forsaken 

I'm drifting high, I'm drifting low 

Flowing out like water 

Looking up down below 

Searching for the tailor's daughter 

Lay me down in sheets of linen 

If you please I'll stay all night 

Come with me I'll dance at your wedding 

Around to the left and around to the right 

Lay me down in sheets of linen 

If you please I'll stay all night 

Come with me I'll dance at your wedding 

Around to the left and around 

Around to the left and around 

Around to the left and around 

To the right
