What Do the Simple Folk Do? - Richard Burton/Julie Andrews[00:00:00]
Written by:Frederick Loewe[00:00:00]
What do the simple folk do[00:00:01]
To help them escape when they're blue[00:00:05]
The shepard who is ailing the milkmaid who is glum[00:00:09]
The cobbler who is wailing from nailing his thumb[00:00:13]
When they're beset and besieged[00:00:17]
The folk not noblessly obliged[00:00:21]
However do they manage to shed their weary lot[00:00:25]
Oh what[00:00:29]
Do simple folk do[00:00:31]
We do not[00:00:35]
I have been informed[00:00:38]
By those know them well[00:00:39]
They find relief in quite a clever way[00:00:41]
When they sorely pressed[00:00:46]
They whistle for a spell[00:00:47]
And whistling seems to brighten up their day[00:00:49]
And that's[00:00:53]
What simple folk do[00:00:55]
So they say[00:00:59]
They whistle[00:01:01]
So they say[00:01:03]
What else do the simple folk do[00:01:27]
To pluck up the heart and get through[00:01:32]
The wee folk and the grown folk[00:01:36]
Who wander to and fro[00:01:38]
Have ways known to their own folk[00:01:40]
We throne folk don't know[00:01:42]
When all the doldrums begin[00:01:44]
What keeps each of them in his skin[00:01:48]
What ancient native custom provides the needed glow[00:01:52]
Oh what[00:01:56]
Do simple folk do[00:01:58]
Do you know[00:02:02]
Once upon the road[00:02:04]
I came upon a lad[00:02:06]
Singing in a voice three times his size[00:02:08]
When I asked him why[00:02:12]
He told me he was sad[00:02:14]
And singing always made his spirits rise[00:02:16]
And that's[00:02:20]
What simple folk do[00:02:22]
I surmise[00:02:26]
They'v sing[00:02:28]
I surmise[00:02:30]
Arise my love arise my love[00:02:33]
Apollo's lighting the skies my love[00:02:35]
The meadows shine with columbine[00:02:37]
And daffodils blossom away[00:02:39]
Hear Venus call to one and all[00:02:41]
Come taste delight while you may[00:02:43]
The world is bright and all is right[00:02:45]
And life is merry and gay[00:02:47]
What else do the simple folk do[00:02:51]
They must have a system or two[00:02:55]
They obviously outshine us at turning tears to mirth[00:02:59]
And tricks a royal highness is minus from birth[00:03:03]
What then I wonder do they[00:03:07]
To chase all the goblins away[00:03:11]
They have some tribal sorcery you haven't mentioned yet[00:03:15]
Oh what[00:03:19]
Do simple folk do to forget[00:03:21]
Often I am told[00:03:28]
They dance fiery dance[00:03:29]
And whirl 'till they're completely uncontrolled[00:03:32]
Soon the mind is blank[00:03:36]
And oh they're in a trance[00:03:38]
A violent trance astounding to behold[00:03:40]
And that's[00:03:43]
What simple folk do[00:03:45]
So I told[00:03:49]
They dance a fair[00:04:11]
False to my now[00:04:13]
What else do the simple folk do[00:04:23]
To help them escape when they're blue[00:04:28]
They sit around and wonder[00:04:32]
What royal folk would do[00:04:34]
And that's[00:04:37]
What simple folk do[00:04:39]
Oh no really[00:04:42]
I have on the best authority[00:04:43]
Yes that's[00:04:46]
What simple folk do[00:04:48]
