Bolts and Locks/Hogties by Tinsmith Lyrics
Last night I dreamed a sweet, sweet dream
All in my arms I had her
But when I woke found nothin' so
No man on earth was madder
I went unto her uncle's house
Expecting there to find her
Her uncle said, "She is not here"
Which set my heart on fire
I turned around to go away
My love came to the window
Saying "Dear, I'd keep your company
But bolts and locks should enter"
My passions flew, my sword I drew
I swore that room I'd enter
And by that means came sweet Liberty
So soon as I did enter
[Instrumental interlude]
Her uncle and another man
Immediately followed
Saying, "If you do not quit that room
All in your blood she'll wallow"
My passions flew, my sword I drew
I swore that room I'd enter
And by that means came sweet Liberty
So soon as I did enter
I took my love by the right hand
My broadsword in the other
Saying "All young men who love like me
Take one and fight the other"
[Flute solo]
My passions flew, my sword I drew
I swore that room I'd enter
And by that means came sweet Liberty
So soon as I did enter
All in my arms I had her
But when I woke found nothin' so
No man on earth was madder
I went unto her uncle's house
Expecting there to find her
Her uncle said, "She is not here"
Which set my heart on fire
I turned around to go away
My love came to the window
Saying "Dear, I'd keep your company
But bolts and locks should enter"
My passions flew, my sword I drew
I swore that room I'd enter
And by that means came sweet Liberty
So soon as I did enter
[Instrumental interlude]
Her uncle and another man
Immediately followed
Saying, "If you do not quit that room
All in your blood she'll wallow"
My passions flew, my sword I drew
I swore that room I'd enter
And by that means came sweet Liberty
So soon as I did enter
I took my love by the right hand
My broadsword in the other
Saying "All young men who love like me
Take one and fight the other"
[Flute solo]
My passions flew, my sword I drew
I swore that room I'd enter
And by that means came sweet Liberty
So soon as I did enter
