Jennifer Gentle Lyrics by Gordon Bok, Ann Mayo Muir, Ed Trickett

All Shall Be Well Again

1983

[Verse 1]
There were three sisters, fair and bright
Jennifer Gentle Fair Rosie Marie
Wanted to wed with a valiant knight
As the dew flies over the mulberry tree
[Verse 2]
The eldest sister took him in
Jennifer Gentle Fair Rosie Marie
Also bolted the silver pin
As the dew flies over the mulberry tree
[Verse 3]
The second sister made his bed
Jennifer Gentle Fair Rosie Marie
Placed the pillow right under his head
As the dew flies over the mulberry tree
[Verse 4]
But the youngest sister, fair and bright
Jennifer Gentle Fair Rosie Marie
Wanted to wed with the valiant knight
As the dew flies over the mulberry tree
[Verse 5]
Well, if you will answer my questions three
Jennifer Gentle Fair Rosie Marie
Then, fair maid, I would marry thee
As the dew flies over the mulberry tree
[Verse 6]
Oh, what is whiter than the milk?
Jennifer Gentle Fair Rosie Marie
What is softer than the silk?
As the dew flies over the mulberry tree
[Verse 7]
Oh, snow is whiter than the milk
Jennifer Gentle Fair Rosie Marie
Down is softer than the silk
As the dew flies over the mulberry tree
[Verse 8]
And what is sharper than the thorn?
Jennifer Gentle Fair Rosie Marie
What is louder than the horn?
As the dew flies over the mulberry tree
[Verse 9]
Oh, hunger is sharper than the thorn
Jennifer Gentle Fair Rosie Marie
Thunder's louder than the horn
As the dew flies over the mulberry tree
[Verse 10]
And what is broader than the way?
Jennifer Gentle Fair Rosie Marie
What is deeper than the sea?
As the dew flies over the mulberry tree
[Verse 11]
Oh, love is broader than the way
Jennifer Gentle Fair Rosie Marie
Hell is deeper than the sea
As the dew flies over the mulberry tree
[Verse 12]
Well, now you've answered my questions three
Jennifer Gentle Fair Rosie Marie
Now, fair maid, I would marry thee
As the dew flies over the mulberry tree
