[00:06.74]"Beware of Long Lankin that lives in the moss"

[00:19.09]"Beware of Long Lankin that lives in the hay"
[00:25.22]"Let the doors be all bolted and the windows all pinned,
[00:31.23]And leave not a hole for a mouse to creep in"
[00:37.45]So he kissed his fair lady and he rode away
[00:43.37]And he was in fair London before the break of day

[01:13.92]"Where's the little heir of this house?" said Lankin
[01:19.46]"He's asleep in his cradle" said the false nurse to him
[01:25.70]"We'll prick him, we'll prick him all over with a pin“

[01:49.37]"Oh nurse, how you slumber. Oh nurse, how you sleep“
[01:55.73]You leave my little Johnson to cry and to weep"
[02:01.70]"I've tried him with an apple, I've tried him with a pear“
[02:07.83]Come down, my fair lady, and rock him in your chair"
[02:14.01]My lady came down, she was thinking no harm
[02:19.99]Long Lankin stood ready to catch her in his arm
[02:26.46]There's blood in the kitchen. There's blood in the hall
[02:32.45]There's blood in the parlour where my lady did fall
[02:38.52]"Oh master, Oh master, don't lay the blame on me“
[02:44.28]'Twas the false nurse and Lankin that killed your lady"
[02:50.56]Long Lankin was hung on a gibbet so high
