Spencer The Rover - John Martyn[00:00:00]

This tune was composed by Spencer the Rover[00:00:14]

As valiant a man as ever left home[00:00:22]

He had been much reduced[00:00:30]

Which caused great confusion[00:00:33]

And that was the reason he started to roam[00:00:38]

In Yorkshire near Rotherham he had been on the ramble[00:00:52]

Weary of traveling he sat down to rest[00:01:00]

By the foot of yon' mountain[00:01:07]

Lays a clear flowing fountain[00:01:10]

With bread and cold water he himself did refresh[00:01:16]

With the night fast approaching to the woods he resorted[00:01:29]

With woodbine and ivy his bed for to make[00:01:37]

But he dreamt about sighing[00:01:46]

Lamenting and crying[00:01:49]

Go home to your family and rambling forsake[00:01:54]

'Twas the fifth day of November I've reason to remember[00:02:07]

When first he arrived home to his family and friends[00:02:16]

And they did stand so astounded[00:02:23]

Surprised and dumbfounded[00:02:26]

To see such a stranger once more in their sight[00:02:32]

And his children come around him with their prittle prattling stories[00:02:47]

With their prittle prattling stories to drive care away[00:02:55]

And he's as happy as those[00:03:03]

As have thousands of riches[00:03:06]

Contented he'll remain and not ramble away[00:03:11]

This tune was composed by Spencer the Rover[00:03:21]

As valiant a man as ever left home[00:03:29]

And he had been much reduced[00:03:37]

And caused great confusion[00:03:39]

And that was the reason he started to roam[00:03:45]
