《Spencer the Rover(Bob & Ron)》歌词

时长： 03:24

These words were composed by Spencer the Rover[00:00:01]

Who travelled Great Britain and most parts of Wales[00:00:08]

He had been so reduced which caused great confusion[00:00:14]

And that was the reason he went on the roam [00:00:21]

In Yorkshire near Rotherham he had been on his rambles[00:00:29]

Being weary of travelling he sat down to rest[00:00:36]

At the foot of yonder mountain there runs a clear fountain[00:00:43]

With bread and cold water he himself did refresh [00:00:49]

It tasted more sweeter than the gold he had wasted[00:00:58]

More sweeter than honey and gave more content[00:01:04]

But the thoughts of his babies lamenting their father[00:01:11]

Brought tears in the eyes witch man him lament [00:01:18]

The night fast approaching to the woods he resorted[00:01:26]

With woodbine and ivy his bed for to make[00:01:33]

There he dreamt about sighing lamenting and crying[00:01:40]

Go home to your family and rambling forsake [00:01:47]

On the fifth of November I've a reason to remember[00:01:55]

When first he arrived home to his family and wife[00:02:01]

They stood so surprised when first he arrived[00:02:08]

To be home such a stranger once more in their sight [00:02:15]

His children came around him[00:02:23]

With their prittle-prattling stories[00:02:26]

With their prittle-prattling stories to drive care away[00:02:30]

Now they are united like birds of one feather[00:02:37]

Like bees in one hive contented they'll be [00:02:43]

So now he is a-living in his cottage contented[00:02:52]

With woodbine and roses growing all around the door[00:02:58]

He's as happy as those that's got thousands of riches[00:03:05]

Contented he'll stay and go a rambling no more [00:03:12]
