Lyrics:

Traditional, Arranged by Dave Alvin

Blackjack David came a-ridin' through the wood

Singin' so loud and merry

His voice was a-ringin' through the green, green fields

And he spied a fair-haired maiden

Spied a fair-haired maiden.



“Listen here lass my name is Jack

And I come from afar

Lookin' for a fair-haired lass like you

Won't you come and be my bride

Come and be my bride??



“Now would you forsake your husband, dear

Would you forsake your baby

Would you forsake your fine, fine home

To go with a Blackjack David

Go with Blackjack David??



“Yes, I'd forsake my husband, dear

And I'd forsake my baby

And I'd forsake my fine, fine home

Just to go with you Blackjack David

Go with you Blackjack David.?



She put on her high-heeled boots

Made of Spanish leather

And he pulled her up behind him then

And they both rode off together

Both rode off together.



Well last night she slept in a fine, fine bed

Beside her husband and baby

Tonight she sleeps on a cold, cold ground

Beside old Blackjack David

Beside old Blackjack David

Beside old Blackjack David

Beside old Blackjack David.
