Baldwin of Erebor

Lass With the Golden Hair

As I rode out one May morning
With a troop of the King's Own Horse
I spied a lass with hair of gold
Who stopped me in my course.

I called to her to bide awhile
But alas, she did not hear
Then the Captain of our troop cried, 'Mount!'
And I lost sight of my dear.

'Twas many a mile we rode our way
And aye, 'twas a long campaign
But I could not think but of the day
When I'd see that lass again.

And when my forty days were done
I turned my horse's heed
And to the home of that fair lass
I hastened with great speed.

But when I got to her home town
No lassie could I find
'She left at dawn by the Eastern road
In another town to bide.'

I've searched high, I searched low
For the lass with the golden hair
But though I tread that Eastern road
She's gone, I know not where.

I'll hie me back to the King's Own Horse
And the life of a soldier tall
For if I cannot have that lass
I'll have no lass at all.
For if I cannot have that lass
I'll have no lass at all.
