The Dreadnoughts - Cider Holiday lyrics
[The Dreadnoughts - Cider Holiday lyrics]
And we will get what we desire
And we will set the night on
Fire to show the way cider Holiday
Let's go!
Oh we'll leave our tired and weary homes
And we'll sail away across the foam
All along the west wind's merry breeze
To the land of pasties, scrump, and cheese
Into Brizzle station, at quarter-after-four
Straight up into the seven stars
There's history in the rafters
Sawdust on the floor
And a sign above the bar
Says "Arr ooh arr, arr ooh ay"
Let's drink cider every day
With fresh wind in our sails
We'll roll out on those ancient trails
Through the Dorset coast in a cider shed
We'll get completely off our heads
Then it’s on to Buckfast Abbey
Pay Devon our respects
Electrified, we'll jump into the car
To a cottage out in Dartmoor
We'll dance around the fire
And swim out in the stars
Arr ooh arr, arr ooh ay
Let's drink cider every day
And we will get what we desire
And we will set the night on
Fire to show the way cider Holiday
To a shanty sing in Boscastle
The table's set, the Nap is full
Grab a pint and pull up a chair
You won't believe what's waitin' there
For you know it’s Smokey Bastard
And all the skimmity lads
Seven verses in to Old Maui
And here's Jamer Turnip, a twinkle in his eye
And he turns and says to thee
Arr ooh arr, arr ooh ay
Let's drink cider every day
And we will get what we desire
And we will set the night on
Fire to show the way cider Holiday
Let's go!
(Cider Holiday)
Of cider, wild and free
Welcome to the good old West Country come my
Suck thy scrump with the fairest of folk
See the standin' stones on the misty moors
See the folks a-fishin' on
The Jurassic shores
Fear the pixie's curse on the lane
Or get drunk, and curse the months
To get real
Arr ooh arr, arr ooh ay
Let's drink cider every day
And we will get what we desire
And we will set the night on
Fire to show the way cider Holiday
La la la la la la la la!
