lirik lagu maddy prior and june tabor - singing the travels
well met, my brothers dear, all along the highway riding
so solemn i was walking along
so pray come tell to me what calling yours may be
and i’ll have you for a servantman
some servingmen do eat the very best of meat
such as c~ck, goose, capon and swan;
but when lords and ladies dine, they drink strong beer, ale and wine
that’s some diet for a servantman
don’t you talk about your capons, let’s have some rusty bacon
and aye, a good piece of pickled pork
that’s always in my house, a crust of bread and cheese
that’s some diet for a husbandman
when next to church they go with their livery fine and g~y
and their c~cked hats and gold lace all around
with their shirts as white as milk, and stitched as fine as silk:
that’s some habit for a servantman
don’t you talk about your livery nor all your silken garments
that’s not fit for to travel the bushes in
give me my leather coat, aye, and in my purse a groat:
that’s some habit for a husbandman
so me must needs confess that your calling is the best
and will give you the uppermost hand
so now we won’t delay but pray both night and day;
god bless the honest husbandman
