Bob Dylan - Black Jack Davey

Black Jack Davey come ridin' on back
 whistlin' loud and merry
Made the woods around him ring
And he charmed the heart of a la--dy
Charmed the heart of a la--dy

How old are you, my pretty little miss
How old are you, my honey?
She answered to him with a lovin' smile
"I'll be sixteen come Sun--day
Be sixteen come Sun--day"

Come and go with me, my pretty little miss
Come and go with me, my honey
Take you where the grass grows green
You never will want for mon--ey
You never will want for mon--ey

Pull off, pull off them high-heeled shoes
All made of Spanish leather
Get behind me on my horse
And we'll ride off to--gether
We'll both go off to--gether

Well she pulled off them high-heeled shoes
Made of Spanish Leather
Got behind him on his horse
And they rode off to--gether
They both rode off to--gether

At night the boss came home
Inquiring about his lady
The servant spoke before she thought
"She's been with Black Jack Da--vey
Rode off with Black Jack Da--vey"

Well, saddle for me my coal-black stud
He's speedier than the gray
I rode all day and I'll ride all night
And I'll overtake my la--dy
I'll bring back my la--dy

Well, he rode all night till the broad daylight
Till he came to a river ragin'
And there he spied his darlin' bride
In the arms of Black Jack Da--vey
Wrapped up with Black Jack Da--vey

Pull off, pull off them long blue gloves
All made of the finest leather
Give to me your lily-white hand
And we'll go home to--gether
We'll both go home to-gether

Well, she pulled off them long blue gloves
All made of the finest leather
Gave to him her lily-white hand
And said goodbye for--ever
Bid farewell for--ever

Would you forsake your house and home
Would you forsake your baby?
Would you forsake your husband too
To go with Black Jack Da--vey
Ride off with Black Jack Da--vey?

Well, I'll forsake my house and home
And I'll forsake my baby
I'll forsake my husband too
For the love of Black Jack Da--vey
Love my Black Jack Da--vey

Last night I slept in a feather bed
Between my husband and baby
Tonight I lay on the river banks
In the arms of Black Jack Da--vey
Love my Black Jack Da--vey
