The Futureheads - The Keeper

Текст песни

Now, the keeper wore a hunting coat
And under his arm, he carried a bow
All for to shoot the merry little doe
Among the leaves so green-o
Jackie boy, Master, singing well, very well
Hey-down, ho-down, derry-derry down
Among the leaves so green-o
To my hey-down-down
To my ho-down down
Hey-down, ho-down, derry-derry down
Among the leaves so green-o
Now, the first doe he shot at he missed
The second doe, he trimmed, he kissed
The third doe went where nobody wist
Among the leaves so green-o
Jackie boy, Master, singing well, very well
Hey-down, ho-down, derry-derry down
Among the leaves so green-o
To my hey-down-down
To my ho-down down
Hey-down, ho-down, derry-derry down
Among the leaves so green-o
Now, the fourth doe went across the plain
The keeper brought her back again
Where she’s now, she must remain
Among the leaves so green-o
Jackie boy, Master, singing well, very well
Hey-down, ho-down, derry-derry down
Among the leaves so green-o
To my hey-down-down
To my ho-down down
Hey-down, ho-down, derry-derry down
Among the leaves so green-o
Now, the fifth doe went across the brook
The keeper fetched her with his crook
Where she’s now you must not look
Among the leaves so green-o
Jackie boy, Master, singing well, very well
Hey-down, ho-down, derry-derry down
Among the leaves so green-o
To my hey-down-down
To my ho-down down
Hey-down, ho-down, derry-derry down
Among the leaves so green-o
