oysterband - hal-an-tow (1994) lyrics
[verse 1]
take the scorn and wear the h+rns
it was the crest when you were born
your father’s father wore it
and your father wore it too
[verse 2]
robin hood and little john
they’ve both gone to the fair+o
we shall to the merry green wood
to hunt the buck and hare+o
[chorus]
hal+an+tow, jolly rumbelow
we were up long before the day+o
to welcome in the summertime
to welcome in the may+o
summer is a+coming in
and winter’s gone away
[verse 3]
what happеned to the spaniards
that made so grеat a boast+o?
they shall eat the feathered goose
we shall eat the roast+o
[chorus]
hal+an+tow, jolly rumbelow
we were up long before the day+o
to welcome in the summertime
to welcome in the may+o
summer is a+coming in
and winter’s gone away
[verse 4]
god bless aunt mary moses
with all her power and might+o
send us peace in england
send peace by day and night+o
[chorus]
hal+an+tow, jolly rumbelow
we were up long before the day+o
to welcome in the summertime
to welcome in the may+o
summer is a+coming in
and winter’s gone away
hal+an+tow, jolly rumbelow
we were up long before the day+o
well, to welcome in the summertime
to welcome in the may+o
summer is a+coming in
and winter’s gone away
[outro]
winter’s gone away
winter’s gone away
winter’s gone away
send us peace in england
winter’s gone away
winter’s gone away
send us peace in england
winter’s gone away
send us peace in england
winter’s gone away
