《The Season Round》歌词

[00:00:00] The Seasons Round - The Copper Family

[00:00:00] The sun has gone down

[00:00:03] And the sky it looks red

[00:00:06] Down on my soft pillow where

[00:00:10] I lay my head

[00:00:12] When I open my eyes for to see the stars shine

[00:00:19] Then the thoughts of

[00:00:20] My true love run into my mind

[00:00:26] The sap has gone down

[00:00:28] And the leaves they do fall

[00:00:32] To hedging and ditching our farmers they'll call

[00:00:38] We will trim up their hedges

[00:00:41] We will cut down their wood

[00:00:44] And the farmers they'll all

[00:00:47] Say our faggots run good

[00:00:51] Now hedging being over

[00:00:54] Then sawing draws near

[00:00:57] We will send for the sawyer

[00:01:00] The woods for to clear

[00:01:03] And after he has sawed them

[00:01:06] And tumbled them down

[00:01:09] Then there he will flaw them

[00:01:12] All on the cold ground

[00:01:17] When sawing is over then

[00:01:20] Seedtime comes round

[00:01:23] See our teams they

[00:01:25] Are already preparing the ground

[00:01:29] Then the man

[00:01:30] With his seed-lip he'll scatter the corn

[00:01:35] Then the harrows

[00:01:37] They will bury it to keep it from harm

[00:01:42] Now seedtime being over

[00:01:45] Then haying draws near

[00:01:49] With our scythes rakes

[00:01:50] And pitch-forks those meadows to clear

[00:01:55] We will cut down their grass boys

[00:01:58] And carry it away

[00:02:01] We will first call

[00:02:02] It green grass and then call it hay

[00:02:08] When haying is over then harvest draws near

[00:02:14] We will send to our Brewer

[00:02:17] To brew us strong beer

[00:02:20] And in brewing strong beer boys

[00:02:23] We will cut down their corn

[00:02:26] And we'll take it to the barn boys

[00:02:29] To keep it from harm

[00:02:33] Now harvest being over bad weather comes on

[00:02:39] We will send for the thresher

[00:02:42] To thresh out our corn

[00:02:45] His hand-staff he'll handle

[00:02:48] His swingel he'll swing

[00:02:51] Till the very next harvest we'll all meet again

[00:02:58] Now since we have brought this

[00:03:01] So cheerfully around

[00:03:04] We will send for the jolly ploughman

[00:03:07] To plough up the ground

[00:03:10] See the boy with his whip

[00:03:13] And the man to his plough

[00:03:16] Here's a health to the jolly ploughmen

[00:03:19] That plough up the ground

[00:03:23] Now things they do change as the time passes on

[00:03:29] And I'm afraid I'll have occasion to alter my song

[00:03:35] You'll see a boy with a tractor a-going like hell

[00:03:41] Whatever farming is coming

[00:03:44] To there's no tongue can tell
