The Derby Ram - A.L. Lloyd[00:00:00]
As I was going to derby all on a market day[00:00:04]
I met the biggest ram me boys that ever was fed on hay[00:00:08]
And indeed my lads it's true my lads I never was known to lie[00:00:11]
And if you'd been in derby you'd have seen him the same as I[00:00:15]
He had four feet to walk upon had four feet to stand[00:00:22]
And every foot that he set down it covered an acre land[00:00:26]
And indeed my lads it's true my lads I never was known to lie[00:00:29]
And if you'd been in derby you'd have seen him the same as I[00:00:33]
The horns that grew on this ram's head they grew so very long[00:00:40]
And every time he shis self they rattled against the sun[00:00:43]
And indeed my lads it's true my lads I never was known to lie[00:00:47]
And if you'd been in derby you'd have seen him the same as I[00:00:51]
The wool on this ram's back me boys grew so very high[00:00:58]
The eagles came and built their nests and I heard the young'uns cry[00:01:01]
And indeed my lads it's true my lads I never was known to lie[00:01:05]
And if you'd been in derby you'd have seen him the same as I[00:01:08]
The man that fed this ram me lads he fed him twice a day[00:01:15]
And every time he opened his mouth he swallowed a rick of hay[00:01:19]
And indeed my lads it's true my lads I never was known to lie[00:01:22]
And if you'd been in derby you'd have seen him the same as I[00:01:26]
This ram he had two horns me lads that reached up to the moon[00:01:33]
A little boy went up in January and he didn't get back till June[00:01:37]
And indeed my lads it's true my lads I never was known to lie[00:01:40]
And if you'd been in derby you'd have seen him the same as I[00:01:44]
Now this old ram he had a tail that reached right down to hell[00:01:51]
And every time he waggled it it rung the old church bell[00:01:55]
And indeed my lads it's true my lads I never was known to lie[00:01:58]
And if you'd been in derby you'd have seen him the same as I[00:02:02]
The butcher that stuck this ram me lads was up to his knees in blood[00:02:09]
And the little boy who held the bowl was carried away by the flood[00:02:12]
And indeed my lads it's true my lads I never was known to lie[00:02:16]
And if you'd been in derby you'd have seen him the same as I[00:02:19]
Now all the men in derby came a begging for his eyes[00:02:26]
To punt up and down the derby streets for they were of football size[00:02:30]
And indeed my lads it's true my lads I never was known to lie[00:02:33]
And if you'd been in derby you'd have seen him the same as I[00:02:37]
Took all the boys in derby to carry away his bones[00:02:44]
Took all the girls in derby to roll away his that's a lie[00:02:48]
Indeed my lads it's true my lads I never was known to lie[00:02:51]
And if you'd been in derby you'd have seen him the same as I[00:02:55]
Now the man who fattened this ram me boys he must've been very rich[00:03:02]
And the man who sung this song must be a lying son of a[00:03:05]
So now my song is ended I've nothing more to say[00:03:09]
But give us another pint of beer and we'll all of us go away[00:03:12]
