The Ballad of Lizzie Wan (Note: This is one of more than seven different versions of the ballad. Kate has identified this ballad -- under the title "The Ballad of Lucy Wan" -- as the source for her song "The Kick Inside".) 1. Fair Lucy sitting in her father's room, Lamenting and a-making her mourn; And in steps her brother James: O what's fair Lucy done? 2. It is time for you to weep, Lamenting and a-making your mourn. Here's a babe at my right side, And it is both mine and yourn. 3. O what will you do when your father comes home? Dear son, come tell to me. I'll set my foot into some little ship And I'll sail plumb over the sea. 4. O what will you do with your house and land? Dear son, come tell to me. I'll leave it here, my old, dear mother; Be kind to my children three. 5. O what will you do with your pretty, little wife? Dear son, come tell to me. She can set her foot in another little ship And follow after me. 6. Back home, back home will you return? Dear son, come tell to me. When the sun and the moon sets in yon hill, And I hope that'll never be.
