The Ballad of Young Alban and Amandy

Lyrics

the sun had gone down
 o'er the hills in the west
 its last beam had faded
 o'er the mountain crest
 amandy was there. friendless and forlorn
 with her face bathed in blood and her garments all torn
 oh, amandy
 oh, amandy
 the campfires were kindled
 each warrior was there and amandy was bound
 her white bosom bare
 it was vengeance that she counted in the eyes of her foe
 and sighed for the time
 when her suffering might close
 oh, amandy... oh, amandy
 oh, amandy yeah' yeah...
 oh, amandy...
 young alban their leader
 suddenly appeared
 with an eye like an eagle
 and a step like a deer
 he said, "brothers, if your victim be burned by a tree
 young alban the leader
 your victim shall be'
 oh, amandy
 oh, amandy
 the next morning was a vision of red, white and blue
 gliding o'er the waters
 in a light, bark canoe
 like a wild dove sails over the tide
 young alban and amandy together did ride
 young alban and amandy together did ride
 oh, ride on
 oh, amandy
 oh, amandy
 yeah...
 oh, amandy
