kate rusby - cold winter lyrics
[verse 1]
all hail to the days that merit more praise
than all the rest of the year
and welcome the nights that double delights
as well for the poor as the peer
and good fortune attend each merry man’s friend
that does but the best that he may
and forgetting all wrongs with music and songs
to drive the cold winter away
to drive the cold winter away
[verse 2]
’tis ill for a mind to anger inclined
to think of small injuries now
if it’s wrath that you seek, don’t lend her your cheek
nor let her inhibit thy brow
and cast out of thy books malevolent looks
that both beauty and youth will dеcay
and will wholly consort with mirth and with sport
to drive the cold winter away
to drivе the cold winter away
[verse 3]
oh, this time of the year is spent in good cheer
and neighbours together do meet
oh, to sit by the fire with friendly desire
each other in love for to greet
and old grudges forgot are put in the pot
and sorrows beside them will lay
and the old and the young will carol this song
to drive the cold winter away
to drive the cold winter away
[instrumental break]
[verse 4]
when christmas tide comes in like a bride
with holly and ivy clad
for twelve days of the year are spent in good cheer
and every household is glad
then the country guise is then to devise
some gambols of christmas to play
oh, and every young man does the best that he can
to drive the cold winter away
to drive the cold winter away
[verse 1]
all hail to the days that merit more praise
than all the rest of the year
and welcome the nights that double delights
as well for the poor as the peer
and good fortune attend each merry man’s friend
that does but the best that he may
oh, in forgetting all wrongs with music and songs
to drive the cold winter away
to drive the cold winter away
to drive the cold winter away
