流派:Folk/Celtic | |
This tune was composed by Spencer the Rover | |
As valiant a man had ever left home | |
Well he had been much reduced and it caused great confusion | |
And that was the reason he started to roam | |
In Yorkshire, near Rotherham, he had been on the ramble | |
And weary of traveling, he had sat down to rest | |
By the foot of yon mountain by a clear, crystal fountain | |
With bread and cold water he himself did refresh | |
With the night fast approaching, to the woods he resorted | |
With woodbine and ivy his bed for to make | |
But he dreamt about sighing, lamenting and crying | |
Go home to your family and rambling forsake | |
'Twas the fifth day of November, I have reason to remember | |
When first he arrived home to his family and friends | |
They did stand so astounded, surprised and dumbfounded | |
To see such a stranger once more in their sight | |
Na~~~ | |
His children come around him with their verses and stories | |
Their verses and stories to drive care away | |
Well, he's as happy as those who have thousands of riches | |
Contented he'll remain and not ramble away | |
This tune was composed by Spencer the Rover | |
As valiant a man had ever left home | |
Well he had been much reduced and it caused great confusion | |
And that was the reason he started to roam | |
Na~~~ | |
