benjamin britten - the false knight upon the road lyrics

the knight met the child in the road
o where are you going to?
said the knight in the road
i am going to my school
said the child as he stood
he stood and he stood and it’s well because he stood
i am going to my school
said the child as he stood

o what are you going there for?
said the knight in the road
for to learn the word of god
said the child as he stood
he stood and he stood and it’s well because he stood
for to learn the word of god
said the child as he stood

o what have you got there?
said the knight in the road
i have got my bread and cheese
said the child as he stood
he stood and he stood and it’s well because he stood
i have got my bread and cheese
said the child as he stood

o won’t you give me some?
said the knight in the road
no, ne’er a bite nor crumb
said the child as he stood
he stood and he stood and it’s well because he stood
no, ne’er a bite nor crumb
said the child as he stood
i wish you was on the sands
said the knight in the road
yes, and a good staff in my hands
said the child as he stood
he stood and he stood and it’s well because he stood
yes, and a good staff in my hands
said the child as he stood

i wish you was in the sea
said the knight in the road
yes, and a good boat under me
said the child as he stood
he stood and he stood and it’s well because he stood
yes, and a good boat under me
said the child as he stood

i think i hear a bell
said the knight in the road
yes, and it’s ringing you to h+ll
said the child as he stood
he stood and he stood and it’s well because he stood
yes, and it’s ringing you to h+ll
said the child as he stood
