Spencer The Rover (漂泊者斯宾塞) (Album Version) - John Martyn[00:00:00]
This tune was composed[00:00:15]
By Spencer the Rover[00:00:17]
As valiant a man as ever left home[00:00:23]
And he had been much reduced[00:00:31]
Which caused great confusion[00:00:33]
And that was the reason[00:00:39]
He started to roam[00:00:41]
In Yorkshire near Rotherham[00:00:53]
He had been on the ramble[00:00:55]
Weary of traveling[00:01:01]
He sat down to rest[00:01:03]
By the foot of yon' mountain[00:01:09]
Lays a clear flowing fountain[00:01:12]
With bread and cold water[00:01:17]
He himself did refresh[00:01:20]
With the night fast approaching[00:01:31]
To the woods he resorted[00:01:33]
With woodbine and ivy[00:01:38]
His bed for to make[00:01:41]
But he dreamt about sighing[00:01:47]
Lamenting and crying[00:01:50]
Go home to your family[00:01:55]
And rambling forsake[00:01:58]
'Twas the fifth day of November[00:02:09]
I've reason to remember[00:02:12]
When first he arrived home[00:02:17]
To his family and friends[00:02:19]
And they did stand so astounded[00:02:25]
Surprised and dumbfounded[00:02:28]
To see such a stranger[00:02:34]
Once more in their sight[00:02:36]
And his children come around him[00:02:49]
With their prittle prattling stories[00:02:51]
With their prittle prattling stories[00:02:56]
To drive care away[00:02:59]
And he's as happy as those[00:03:04]
As have thousands of riches[00:03:07]
Contented he'll remain[00:03:13]
And not ramble away[00:03:15]
This tune was composed[00:03:23]
By Spencer the Rover[00:03:25]
As valiant a man[00:03:31]
As ever left home[00:03:33]
And he had been much reduced[00:03:38]
And caused great confusion[00:03:41]
And that was the reason[00:03:47]
He started to roam[00:03:49]
