goblin band - john barleycorn lyrics

Loading...

there were three kings come from the west
their victory to try
and they have taken a solemn oath
john barleycorn should die

[chorus]
fol the dol the did+i+ay
fol the dol the did+i+ai
go+o

they’ve took a plough and they’ve ploughed him in
piled clods all on his head
and they have taken a solemn oath
john barleycorn was dead

[chorus]
fol the dol the did+i+ay
fol the dol the did+i+ai
go+o

they’ve let him lie for a full fortnight
till the dew on him did fall
and barleycorn sprung up again
and that amazed them all

[chorus]
fol the dol the did+i+ay
fol the dol the did+i+ai
go+o
they let him stand till midsummer’s day
till he looked both pale and wan
and barleycorn he’s grown a beard
and so become a man

[chorus]
fol the dol the did+i+ay
fol the dol the did+i+ai
go+o

then they’ve sent men with scythes so sharp
to cut him off at knee
and then poor johnny barleycorn
they served him barbarously

[chorus]
fol the dol the did+i+ay
fol the dol the did+i+ai
go+o

o barleycorn is the choicest grain
that ever was grown on land
it will do more than any grain
by the turning of your hand

[chorus]
fol the dol the did+i+ay
fol the dol the did+i+ai
go+o
