Well met, well met, my own true love
Well met, well met, cried she
I've just returned from the salt, salt sea
And it's all for the love of thee
I could have married a King's daughter there
She would have married me
But I have forsaken my King's daughter there
It's all for the love of thee
Well, if you could have married a King's daughter there
I'm sure you're the one to blame
For I am married to a house carpenter
And I'm sure he's a fine young man
Forsake, forsake your house carpenter
And come away with me
I'll take you where the green grass grows
On the shores of sunny Italy
So up she picked her babies three
And gave them kisses, one, two, three
Saying take good care of your daddy while I'm gone
And keep him good company.
Well, they were sailin' about two weeks
I'm sure it was not three
When the younger of the girls, she came on deck
Sayin' she wants company
Well, are you weepin' for your house and home?
Or are you weepin' for your babies three?
Well, I'm not weepin' for my house carpenter
I'm weepin' for my babies three.
Oh what are those hills yonder, my love
They look as white as snow
Those are the hill of heaven, my love
You and I'll never know
Oh what are those hills yonder, my love
They look as dark as night
Those are the hills of hell fire my love
Where you and I will unite
Oh twice around went the gallant ship
I'm sure it was not three
When the ship all of a sudden, it sprung a leak
And it drifted to the bottom of the sea
The lyrics HOUSE CARPENTER of BOB DYLAN is also present in the album The bootleg series volumes 1-3 (1991)
Bob Dylan, nato Robert Allen Zimmerman a Duluth (Minnesota) il 24 maggio 1941, è un cantautore, compositore, scrittore, poeta, pittore, attore e conduttore radiofonico statunitense. Considerato una delle figure più influenti degli ultimi cinquant'anni in musica, cultura popolare e letteratura, Dylan ha segnato profondamente la storia della musica americana. La sua carriera inizia negli anni '60, periodo in cui si afferma come figura chiave del movimento di protesta americano. Canzoni come *Blowin' in the Wind* e *The Times They Are A-Changin'* diventano inni dei movimenti pacifisti e per i diritti civili. I testi delle sue prime canzoni affrontano temi politici, sociali e filosofici, influenzati da autori letterari come Walt Whitman e William Blake, sfidando le convenzioni della musica pop e appellandosi alla controcultura del tempo. Nel corso degli anni Dylan ha ampliato e personalizzato il suo stile musicale, esplorando generi diversi come country, blues, rock e gospel. Tra i suoi album più importanti: *The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan* (1963), *Bringing It All Back Home* (1965) e *Highway 61 Revisited* (1965). Nel 1976 pubblica l'album *Desire*, che segna un nuovo capitolo nella sua carriera, con influenze blues e country. Nel 2016 riceve il Premio Nobel per la letteratura «per aver creato nuove poetiche nel grande universo della canzone americana».
