If you should come to Knaresborough town Look for a woman that knows me well Light are her eyes and fine her gown And she goes by the bridge at Knaresborough town The rivers flows on many a year Through summer green and autumn brown And men have lived and men have died That walked the bridge at Knaresborough town And if you come upon the day When ter all?? fields were found The words of ruin the thoughts of peace?? That curse the bridge at Knaresborough town Now you who listen mind you well For twice the time has come around The bridge did fall so who knows when There'll be no world for Knaresborough town
