Let Me Be @30

[Chorus: Kate Rusby & KT Tunstall]
La, la la la la
La, la la la la
La, la la la la
La, la la la la

[Verse 1: Kate Rusby, Kate Rusby & KT Tunstall]
They say a girl like me should wed
And take a man to lay in my bed
But I would like to stay young and free
And oh, I wish they would let me be
Oh, I wish they would let me be
Let me be

[Chorus: Kate Rusby & KT Tunstall]
La, la la la la
La, la la la la

[Verse 2: KT Tunstall, Kate Rusby & KT Tunstall]
Robin the miller he's fond of brass
Sees a fool's face when he looks in glass
Thinks he'll bargain like grain for me
But oh, I wish he would let me be
Oh, I wish he would let me be
Robin, let me be

[Bridge: Kate Rusby & KT Tunstall]
La, la la la la, la la la, la la la la la
La, la la la la, la la la, la la
La la la la la la, la la la, la la la la la
La, la la la la, la la la, la la

[Chorus: Kate Rusby & KT Tunstall]
La, la la la la
La, la la la la

[Verse 3: Kate Rusby]
This young man is Bonnie Jim
He looked so fine in his holiday trim
Hе thinks he'll take me off to thе sea
But oh, I wish he would let me be
Oh, I wish he would let me be
Jim, let me be

[Chorus: Kate Rusby & KT Tunstall]
La, la la la la
La, la la la la

[Verse 4: Kate Rusby & KT Tunstall, Kate Rusby]
But this young soldier boy is Ned
If his gun's like his own, he can shoot me dead
His eyes are blue but they don't see me
Oh, why does he let me be?
Oh, why does he let me be?
Ned, let me be
Why let me be?

[Bridge: Kate Rusby & KT Tunstall]
La, la la la la, la la la, la la la la la
La, la la la la, la la la, la la
La la la la la la, la la la, la la la la la
La, la la la la, la la la, la la

[Chorus: Kate Rusby & KT Tunstall]
La, la la la la
La, la la la la
