Bridal Chest Lyrics

Sam Baker Bridal Chest

There is a workshop Full of noises Things are cut Things are bound Things are built Built in secret The bridal chest The wedding gown Bring the maiden From the cloister Bring her free Bring her bound She will stand With her ancestors The bridal chest The wedding gown Pay the dowry In dolls and dishes That's the dough This day of crowns That's the dough It is el dinero The bridal chest The wedding gown Bring the captain From the lee shore Leave his ship To run aground Leave his crew To hungry fishes The bridal chest The wedding gown Pay the dowry In dolls and dishes That's the dough This day of crowns That's the dough It is el dinero The bridal chest The wedding gown Say the Right Words
