Two ravens sitting in a tree
They were just as high
As they could be
Two ravens waved at me
They were just as black
As they could be
Slowly one turned and whispered
My love, my love
Where shall we find our supper tonight?
Down down derry derry down
Derry derry down
Down down derry derry down
Derry derry down
In, she said, in yonder field
Lies a knight
Dead 'neath his shield
You can gnash at his white thighs
I will pluck out his eyes
And his noble blood
Will make us fly so high
Down down derry derry down
Derry derry down
Down down derry derry down
Derry derry down
Far away a young maid cries
Begging and begging and pleading
With countryside
Above her head two ravens fly
Oh, down, ever down, ever down, ever down
One day in a field you will lie
And you'll be by his side
Down down derry derry down
Derry derry down
Down down derry derry down
Derry derry down
Queen, high in your castle
Your heart is only half with you today
Today
Your tears soaking the stone
Above your head two ravens fly
I am home, home I am home, home I am home
I am home
