lirik lagu brocelïande - merry old inn

[verse 1: kristoph]
there is an inn, a merry old inn
beneath an old grey hill
and there they brew a beer so brown
that the man in the moon himself came down
one night to drink his fill

[verse 2: kristoph]
the ostler has a tipsy cat
that plays a five~stringed fiddle;
and up and down he runs his bow
now squeaking high, now purring low
now sawing in the middle

[verse 3: kristoph]
the landlord keeps a little dog
that is mighty fond of jokes;
when there’s good cheer among the guests
he c~cks an ear at all the jests
and laughs until he chokes

[verse 4: kristoph]
they also keep a h~rnéd cow
as proud as any queen;
but music turns her head like alе
and makes her wave hеr tufted tail
and dance upon the green
[instrumental]

[verse 5: kristoph and margaret]
and o! the rows of silver dishes
and the store of silver spoons!
for sunday there’s a special pair
and these they polish up with care
on sat~rday afternoons

[verse 6: kristoph and margaret]
the man in the moon was drinking deep
and the cat began to wail;
a dish and a spoon on the table danced
the cow in the garden madly pranced
and the little dog chased his tail

[verse 7: kristoph and margaret]
the man in the moon took another mug
and rolled beneath his chair;
and there he dozed and dreamed of ale
till in the sky the stars were pale
and dawn was in the air

[verse 8: kristoph and margaret]
then the ostler said to his tipsy cat:
“the white horses of the moon
they neigh and champ their silver bits;
but their master’s been and drowned his wits
and the sun’ll be rising soon!”
[instrumental]

[verse 9: kristoph and margaret]
so the cat on his fiddle played hey~diddle~diddle
a jig that would wake the dead:
he squeaked and sawed and quickened the tune
while the landlord shook the man in the moon:
“it’s after three!” he said

[verse 10: kristoph and margaret]
they rolled the man slowly up the hill
and bundled him into the moon
while his horses galloped up in rear
and the cow came capering like a deer
and a dish ran up with the spoon

[verse 11: kristoph and margaret]
now quicker the fiddle went deedle~dum~diddle;
the dog began to roar
the cow and the horses stood on their heads;
the guests all bounded from their beds
and danced upon the floor

[verse 12: kristoph and margaret]
with a ping and a pang the fiddle~strings broke!
the cow jumped over the moon
and the little dog laughed to see such fun
and the sat~rday dish went off at a run
with the silver sunday spoon
[instrumental]

[verse 13: kristoph and margaret]
the round moon rolled behind the hill
as the sun raised up her head
she hardly believed her fiery eyes;
(kristoph, spoken: for though it was day, to her surprise)
they all went back to bed

[instrumental]
