the teacups - the bellringing lyrics
[verse 1]
one morning in october, neither drunken nor sober
down broadbury, down i was wending my way
when i heard of some ringing, some dancing and singing
i’ll always remember that jubilee day
[chorus]
’twas in ashwater town, the bells the did sound
they rang for a belt and a hat laced with gold
but the men of northlew rang so steady and true
that there never were better in devon, i hold
[verse 2]
’twas misunderstood of the men of broadwood
rang a peel on the tenor should never havе been
but the men of northlew rang so stеady and true
a difficult matter to beat them by we
[chorus]
’twas in ashwater town, the bells the did sound
they rang for a belt and a hat laced with gold
but the men of northlew rang so steady and true
that there never were better in devon, i hold
[verse 3]
those of broadwood be naughty, they said to our party
we’ll ring you a challenge again in the round
we’ll give you the (?) saint stephens by launceston
the prize to the winner a note of five pounds
[chorus]
’twas in callington town, the bells they did sound
they rang for a belt and a hat laced with gold
but the men of northlew rang so steady and true
that there never were better in devon, i hold
[verse 4]
so the match, it went on in good callington
and the bells, they rang out o’er the valleys below
the old and young people, the hale and the feeble
they came out to hear the sweet bell music flow
[chorus]
’twas in callington town, the bells they did sound
they rang for a belt and a hat laced with gold
but the men of northlew rang so steady and true
that there never were better in devon i hold
[verse 5]
those of broadwood once more were obliged to give all
they were beaten completely again in the round
and the men of northlew rang so steady and true
no better than they in the west can be found
[chorus]
’twas in ashwater town, the bells the did sound
they rang for a belt and a hat laced with gold
but the men of northlew rang so steady and true
that there never were better in devon, i hold
’twas in ashwater town, yes, the bells the did sound
they rang for a belt and a hat laced with gold
but the men of northlew rang so steady and true
that there never were better in devon, i hold
