SHE WORE A RED APRON
I am the BarronĀ
That was at last nights ball
I was seated next to crowned prince
Under the King's pictureĀ
On the western wall
Don't be shocked or alarmedĀ
By my soon returnĀ
It's a matter of urgencyĀ
So please, help me
Last night while dancingĀ
With princess Ann
I saw Ā a young ladyĀ
Dressed in black
With a red apronĀ
Her skin were as silk
Gentle to the touchĀ
Her smile was as the sun on the horizon
Or an angel's blushĀ
My heart was made merryĀ
My mind in a dazeĀ
I prayed for the song to be overĀ
But from my eyes she disappearedĀ
Please tell meĀ
Where can I find her, what is her nameĀ
I will give all of my richesĀ
To behold her faceĀ
Just follow the sand tracksĀ
To the servants cabinĀ
There you will findĀ
Your fair lady, The kings servant
Wearing the red apron.
Wilford Barker.
