Scarborough Fair (Reprise)

by Grant Maloy Smith and Kevin Lucas

/

about

Billboard Top 10 Americana artist Grant Maloy Smith joins forces with Marimba master Kevin Lucas to create a whole new version of the 18th century song, “Scarborough Fair.” Grant updated the lyrics of this bittersweet love song, and added a chorus to bring it up to date with how songs are written today. The duo went into the studio and created a lush version that builds from a beautiful acoustic beginning to a powerful rock/orchestral finish. The stereo mix was done by Grant, and mastered by Jeff Silverman of Palette MSP in Nashville.

lyrics

Scarborough Fair (Reprise)
© 2023 Grant Maloy Smith

Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Remember me to one who lives there
She once was a true love of mine

Tell her to make me a fine linen shirt
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
With handsome seams and fine needlework
Then she'll be a true love of mine

On your way
Find flowers for her
Daisies to weave in her hair
On your way
Bring salt of the earth
To my love at Scarborough Fair

Tell her to find us an acre of land
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
I’ll build us a house with my own right hand
Then she'll be a true love of mine

On your way
Find flowers for her
Roses to weave in her hair
On your way
Be salt of the earth
To my love at Scarborough Fair

On your way
Be salt of the earth
To my love at Scarborough Fair
