1
It was the dirty end of winter
2
Along the loom of the land
3
When I walked with sweet Sally
4
Hand upon hand
5
And the wind it bit bitter
6
For a boy of no means
7
With no shoes on his feet
8
And a knife in his jeans
9
Along the loom of the land
10
The mission bells peeled
11
From the tower at Saint Mary's
12
Down to Reprobate Fields
13
And I saw that the world
14
Was all blessed and bright
15
And Sally breathed softly
16
In the majestic night
17
O baby, please don't cry
18
And try to keep
19
Your little hand upon my shoulder
20
Now go to sleep
21
Well the elms and the poplars
22
Were all turning their backs
23
Past the rumbling station
24
We followed the trains
25
We found an untrodden path
26
And followed it down
27
The moon in the sky
28
Like a dislodged crown
29
And my hands they burned
30
In the folds of her coat
31
Breathing milky white air
32
From deep in her throat
33
O baby, please don't cry
34
And try to keep
35
Your little head upon my shoulder
36
Now go to sleep
37
I told Sally in whispers
38
I'll never bring you harm
39
Her breast, it was small
40
And warm in my palm
41
I told her that the moon
42
Was a magical thing
43
It shone gold in the winter
44
And silver in spring
45
And we walked and walked
46
Across the endless sands
47
Just me and my Sally
48
Along the loom of the land
49
O baby, please don't cry
50
And try to keep
51
Your little head upon my shoulder
52
Now try to sleep
53
O baby, please don't cry
54
And don't you weep
55
Lay your head upon my shoulder
56
Now try to sleep
