[00:00.504]When First Unto This Country - New Lost City Ramblers
[00:14.548]When first unto this country
[00:17.157]A stranger I came
[00:20.645]And I courted a fair maid
[00:24.605]And Nancy was her name
[00:28.516]I courted her for love
[00:30.765]And her love I didn't obtain
[00:34.373]Do you think I've any reason
[00:38.235]Or right to complain
[00:42.122]I rode to see my Nancy
[00:44.508]I rode both day and night
[00:48.088]I courted fairest Nancy
[00:51.800]My own heart's true delight
[01:08.938]I rode to see my Nancy
[01:11.137]I rode both day and night
[01:14.387]Till I was fine they find gray horse
[01:18.407]From looking and fair
[01:21.996]The Sheriff's meet me followed
[01:24.331]And overtaken me
[01:27.611]They carted me away
[01:30.953]To the penitentiary
[01:35.217]They opened the door
[01:37.439]And then they shop me in
[01:40.839]They cleared off my head
[01:44.222]Instead of my chin
[02:01.534]They beat me and they banged me
[02:03.710]They fed me on dried beef
[02:07.133]Till I wished to my own soul
[02:10.966]I'd never been a thief
[02:14.518]With my hands in my pockets
[02:16.740]Fet me cat put on so bold
[02:20.131]With my coat of many colors
[02:23.787]Like Jacob's of old
