mat williams - the lincolnshire poacher lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
when i was bound apprentice
in famous lincolnshire
full well i served my master
for nigh on seven years
till i took up to poaching
as you should quickly hear

[refrain]
oh, ’tis my delight on a shiny night
in the season of the year
oh, ’tis my delight on a shiny night
in the season of the year

[verse 2]
as me and my companions
was setting out a snare
twas then we spied the gamekeeper
for him we didn’t care
for we can wrestle and fight, my boys
and jump from anywhere

[refrain]
oh, ’tis my delight on a shiny night
in the season of the yеar
oh, ’tis my delight on a shiny night
in the season of thе year
[verse 3]
as me and my companions
was setting four or five
and taking them all up again
we caught a hare alive
we caught a hare alive, me boys
and through the woods did steer

[refrain]
oh, ’tis my delight on a shiny night
in the season of the year
oh, ’tis my delight on a shiny night
in the season of the year

[verse 4]
we threw him over me shoulder, boys
and then we trudged home
we took him to a neighbor’s house
and sold him for a crown
we sold him for a crown, me boys
and i divvn’t tell you where

[refrain]
oh, ’tis my delight on a shiny night
in the season of the year
oh, ’tis my delight on a shiny night
in the season of the year
[verse 5]
success to every gentleman
that lives in lincolnshire
success to every poacher
that wants to sell a hare
bad luck to every gamekeeper
that will not sell his deer

[refrain]
oh, ’tis my delight on a shiny night
in the season of the year
oh, ’tis my delight on a shiny night
in the season of the year
