7. FINE FLOOERS IN THE VALLEY
TRAD. ARR. FRAME / VASS / MASSIE A version of the classic ballad The Cruel Mother.
lyrics
Fine flowers in the valley
She lay doon below a thorn,
Fine flowers in the valley,
And there she has her sweet babe born
And the green leaves they grow rarely.
Smile nae sae sweet, by bonnie babe
Fine flowers in the valley,
Ye smile sae sweet, ye'll smile me deid
And the green leaves they grow rarely.
She's taen out her wee penknife
Fine flowers in the valley,
And twinn'd the sweet babe o' its life,
And the green leaves they grow rarely.
She's howket a grave by the light o' the moon,
Fine flowers in the valley,
And there she's buried her sweet babe in,
And the green leaves they grow rarely.
As she was going to the church,
Fine flowers in the valley,
She saw a sweet babe in the porch,
And the green leaves they grow rarely.
O sweet babe and thou were mine,
Fine flowers in the valley,
It’s I’d clad thee in the silk so fine
And the green leaves they grow rarely.
O mother dear, when I was thine,
Fine flowers in the valley,
You did na prove to me sae kind,
And the green leaves they grow rarely.

Gorgeous fingerstyle guitar playing from this Portland, Oregon musician that captures the spirit of American Primitive in dazzling detail. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 30, 2021
Just the most fun. Every set is one I want to sit down and learn, and they play with so much ENERGY and STYLE. Crunchy, tangible sound. I'll never get tired of listening to Kinnaris Quintet play. andpersand
