Offensive Murder Ballads and Songs with Emotion #5

from PUB SONGS & STORIES

I wrote my first ever murder ballad inspired by an album Andrew and I came up with called Happy Songs of Death. Songs: "Won't You Come With Me" by Marc Gunn "My Own Hero" by Joni Minstrel from Joni Minstrel Kicks the King Notes: Writing Murder Ballads Songs that Inspire Emotion IRA Songs Won't You Come With Me? words and music by Marc Gunn I left my ship with storms on my mind, High wind and tossing seas. I sought a girl with soft green eyes To take my mind off me. Hai diddle-dai-dum Ba du diddle-dai-dum Ba du diddle-dai diddle-dai dee Hai diddle-dai-dum Ba du diddle-dai-dum Won't you come with me? I met a maid by waterside Gutting the herring clean. She took my hand, laid down her knife. Then we walked along the beach. Singing... She set herself down on a rock And bade me sit at her feet. The sun settled down and the wind did blow The curlets across her cheek. We sang... I took her gently in my arms Our bodies rolling in the sand. When I pulled the knife out of her side Her body stopped lurching at last.
