Skip to My Lou - Strawbs

Did you hear me, my little one

Calling you by the way of the moon

Serenading you

To my saddest tune

Will you know me, my little one

Rushing by at the speed of sand

Serenading you

With flower in hand

Skip to my Lou, my darling

Skip to my Lou, my darling young one

Skip to my Lou, my darling

All night, all night long

Did you see me my little one

Walking along by the railway track

Serenading you

Without looking back

Will you kiss me my little one

Leading you to the hangman’s knot

Serenading you

With forget-me-not

Did you fear me my little one

As the last train passed us by

Serenading you

With a tear in my eye

Will you haunt me my little one

Ill at ease with Cupid’s dart

Serenading you

With a broken heart
