male ensemble – fie on goodness lyrics
fie on goodness, fie
fie on goodness, fie
eight years of kindness to your neighbor
making sure that the meek are treated well
eight years of philanthropic labor
derry down dell, d-mn, but it’s h-ll
oh, fie on goodness, fie
fie, fie, fie
it’s been depressing all the way, derry down, derry down
and getting glummer every day, derry down, derry down
ah, but to burn a little town or slay a dozen men
anything to laugh again
oh, fie on goodness, fie
fie, fie, fie, fie, fie
when i think of the rollicking pleasures that earlier filled my life
lolly lo, lolly lo
like the time i beheaded a man who was beating his naked wife
lolly lo, lolly lo
i can still hear his widow say
never moving from where she lay
“tell me what can i do, i beg, sir, of you
your kindness to repay”
fie on goodness, fie
fie on goodness, fie
lechery and vice have been arrested, arrested
not a maiden is evermore in threat
virgins may wander unmolested, unmolested
lolly lo let, gad, it’s a sweat
oh, fie on goodness, fie
fie, fie, fie, fie, fie
how we roared and brawled in scotland
not a law was e’er obeyed
and when wooing called in scotland
we’d grab any p-ssing maid
ah, my heart is still in scotland
where the l-sses woo the best
on some bonny hill in scotland
stroking someone’s bonny
fie on scotland, fie
fie on scotland, fie
no one repents for any sin now
every soul is immaculate and trim, immaculate
no one is covered with chagrin now
lolly lo lim, gad, but it’s grim
oh, fie on goodness, fie
fie, fie, fie
there’s not a folly to deplore, derry down, derry down
confession sunday is a bore, derry down, derry down
ah, but to spend a tortured evening staring at the floor
guilty and alive once more
oh, fie on virtue, fie
fie on mercy, fie
fie on justice, fie on goodness
fie, fie, fie, fie, fie
