The Keeper Would A Hunting Go Songtext
The Keeper would a hunting go, And under his cloak he carried a bow, All for to shoot a merry little doe Among the leyves so green, o. Bridge Jackie boy! Master! Sing ye well! Very well! Chorus Hey down! Ho down! Derry derry down, among the leaves so green, o. To my hey down, down, To my ho down, down. Hey down! Ho down! Derry, derry down, Among the leaves so green, o. The first doe shot at he missed; The seconddoe he trimmed he kissed; The third doe went where nobody wist Among the leaves so green, o. Bridge Chorus The fourth doe she did cross the plain; The keeper fetched her back again; Where she is now she may remain Among the leaves so green, o. Bridge Chorus The fift doe she did cross the brook; The keeper fetched her back with his crook; Where she is now you must go and look Among the leaves so green, o. Bridge Chorus The sixth doe she ran over the plain; But he with hounds did turn her again, And it's there he did hunt in a merry vein Among the leaves so green, o. Bridge Chorus
