lirik lagu beerside scoundrels - the smugglers' song
[chorus]
five and twenty ponies
trotting through the dark
brandy for the parson
and baccy for the clark
laces for the ladies
letters for the spy
watch the wall my darling
while the gentlemen go by
[verse 1]
if you wake at midnight
to the sound of horses’ feet
don’t go drawin’ back the blinds
nor lookin’ in the street
them that ask no questions
isn’t told a lie
now watch the wall my darling
while the gentlemen go by
[verse 2]
if you go running through the woods
and you should hap’ to find
little barrels, roped and tied
all full of brady wine
well, don’t you shout to common, “look”
nor use them for your play
just pull the brushwood back again
and thеy’ll be gone next day
[verse 3]
if you see a stablе door
standin’ open wide
and if you see a tired horse
lyin’ down inside
and if your mother mends a coat
that’s cut about and torn
and if the lining’s wet and warm
well don’t you ask no more
[chorus]
five and twenty ponies
trotting through the dark
brandy for the parson
and baccy for the clark
laces for the ladies
letters for the spy
watch the wall my darling
while the gentlemen go by
[verse 4]
knocks and footsteps round the house
whistles after dark
you have no call for running out
until the house dogs bark
for trustees here and finches here
and see how dumb they lie
they don’t fret to follow
when the gentlemen go by
[verse 5]
if you see the king’s men
dressed in blue and red
do be careful what ya say
and mindful what is said
and if they call you pretty maid
and check beneath your chin
well don’t you tell where no one is
nor yet when no one’s been
[chorus]
five and twenty ponies
trotting through the dark
brandy for the parson
and baccy for the clark
laces for the ladies
letters for the spy
watch the wall my darling
while the gentlemen go by
[verse 6]
if you do as you are told
likely there’s a chance
you’ll be given a dainty doll
that’s all the way from france
with a box of chocolates
and a velvet hood
all from the gentlemen
along with bein’ good
[outro]
five and twenty ponies
trotting through the dark
brandy for the parson
and baccy for the clark
them that ask no questions
isn’t told a lie
watch the wall my daring
while the gentlemen go by
