Fairport Convention - Reynard The Fox Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Ye gentlemen of high renown, come listen unto me
  • That takes delight in fox hunting by every degree
  • A story I will tell to you, concerning of a fox
  • Near royston woods and mountains high and over stony rocks
  • Bold Reynard, being in his hole and hearing of these hounds
  • Which made him for to prick up his ears and tread upon the ground
  • "Methinks me hears some jubal hounds a-pressing upon the life
  • Before that they should come to me, I'll tread upon the ground"
  • We hunted for four hours or more through parishes sixteen
  • We hunted for four hours or more and came by Parkworth Green
  • "Oh, if you'll only spare my life, I promise and fulfil
  • To touch no more your feathered fowl or lambs on yonder hill"
  • Bold Reynard, spent and out of breath and treading on this ground
  • Thinking he must give up his life before these jubal hounds
  • "So here's adieu to ducks and geese, likewise to lambs also"
  • They've got poor Reynard by the slabs and will not let them go

    • Report error in lyric
