'''Cold Blow and a Rainy Night'''

[[Roud 135]]

== Version from [[James Beale]] ==
Collected by [[Cecil Sharp]] at Warehorne, [[Kent]], 23rd Sep 1908.

#My hat is frozen to my head My body’s like a lump of lead My shoes are frozen to my feet Standing at your window Let me in, the soldier cried Cold blow and a rainy night Let me in the soldier cried I’ll never go back again O 
#Down she came and let him in And then they went to bed again He kissed her lips and tickled her knee And soon he gained her favour Then she blessed the rainy night Cold blow and a rainy night Then she blessed the rainy night That ever she let him in O 
#O lad, O lad, O marry me My father will give thee gold so free O no, O no, I’ll not marry So fare thee well for ever Then she cursed the rainy night Cold blow and a rainy night Then she cursed the rainy night That ever she let him in O 
#Then he jumped out of bed he put his hat upon his head And she had lost her maidenhead Her mother heard the jingle Then she cursed the rainy night Cold blow and a rainy night Then she cursed the rainy night That ever she let him in O
