Steeleye Span - False Knight on the Road lyrics
[Steeleye Span - False Knight on the Road lyrics]
"Oh, where are you going?" says the
False knight on the road
"I'm going to me school
" says the wee boy and still he stood
"What is on your back?" says the
False knight on the road
"Me bundles and me books
" says the wee boy and still he stood
"I came a-walking by your door
" says the false knight on the road
"That lay in your way
" says the wee boy and still he stood
"I flung your dog a stone
" says the false knight on the road
"I wish it was a bone
" says the wee boy and still he stood
"Oh, what sheep and cattle's that?" says
The false knight on the road
"They're mine and me father's
" says the wee boy and still he stood
"And how many shall be mine?" says
The false knight on the road
"The ones that have the blue tail
" says the wee boy and still he stood
"Oh, how can I get a share o' them?"
Says the false knight on the road
"You cannot get a share of them
" says the wee boy and still he stood
"And why the stick all in your hand?"
Says the false knight on the road
"To keep me from all cold and harm
" says the wee boy and still he stood
"Ah, I wish you were in yonder tree
" says the false knight on the road
"A ladder under me
" says the wee boy and still he stood
"The ladder, it'll break
" says the false knight on the road
"And you will surely fall
" says the wee boy and still he stood
"I wish you were in yonder sea
" says the false knight on the road
"A good boat under me
" says the wee boy and still he stood
"The boat will surely sink
" says the false knight on the road
"And you will surely drown
" says the wee boy and still he stood
"Has your mother more than you?" says
The false knight on the road
"Oh, none of them for you
" says the wee boy and still he stood
"I think I hear a bell
" says the false knight on the road
"It's ringing you to hell
" says the wee boy and still he stood
False knight on the road
"I'm going to me school
" says the wee boy and still he stood
"What is on your back?" says the
False knight on the road
"Me bundles and me books
" says the wee boy and still he stood
"I came a-walking by your door
" says the false knight on the road
"That lay in your way
