Lyrics Billy Taylor
Billy Taylor was a smart young fellerFull of mirth and full of glee,
And he did his mind diskiver
To a lady fair to see.
Chorus
Fol rol lol, de rol lo lie do
Fol rol lol, de rol lol lay.
Four and twenty smart young fellers,
Dressed were they in blue array,
They came and took poor Billy Taylor
Whom they pressed and sent away
Chorus
Fol rol lol, de rol lo lie do
Fol rol lol, de rol lol lay.
Soon his true love followed after,
She went by the name of Richard Carr,
And she smeared her lily-white fingers
With the nasty pitch and tar.
Chorus
Fol rol lol, de rol lo lie do
Fol rol lol, de rol lol lay.
A storm arose upon the ocean,
She went up aloft with the rest,
Her sailor's jacket being unbuttoned
There they diskivered her lily-white breast.
Chorus
Fol rol lol, de rol lo lie do
Fol rol lol, de rol lol lay.
When the captain came for to know it
Says he, What wind did blow you here?
Sir, I've come to seek my true love
Whom you've pressed and sent to sea.
Chorus
Fol rol lol, de rol lo lie do
Fol rol lol, de rol lol lay.
If his name is Billy Taylor
He is both cruel and severe
If you rise up early in the morning
You will see him with his lady dear.
Chorus
Fol rol lol, de rol lo lie do
Fol rol lol, de rol lol lay.
Early, early, in the morning,
Early at the break of day,
Who did she see but Billy Taylor
Walking with his lady gay.
Chorus
Fol rol lol, de rol lo lie do
Fol rol lol, de rol lol lay.
Sword and pistols she called out for,
And they came at her command
And she shot her Billy Taylor
With his lady by the hand.
Chorus
Fol rol lol, de rol lo lie do
Fol rol lol, de rol lol lay.
When the Captain he came for to know it
He applauded her for what she'd done.
And he made her his Lieutenant
Aboard the gallant Thunderbrun.

A colorful mixture of traditional English folk songs and ballads, as well as the history of many of the songs. Many English folk songs are quite familiar in America. Hundreds of them came along with the earliest settlers in the 17th century; others with the Redocoats in the 18th century; still others with the sailors and fisherman of the 19th century; and finally the doughboys and G.I.'s of two world wars have brought over the 20th century's contribution. The book includes melody line, lyrics, historical information, and guitar chords.
