lirik lagu richard dawson - beggar
[verse 1]
she’s fast asleep at woden’s feet
whilst alms i seek from thronging fairfolk
as a whelp fast to the teat
she smote me then
we’ve ever since been shadows
two beasts of one old soul
[verse 2]
if you rely on the kindness of strangers
it helps to have a hound for a handmaid
not only for the superior nose
or companionship
often people stop to talk with me
having never seen before such a very beautiful snow-coloured collie
[verse 3]
working the fell – a most powerful eye
part of the gr-ss, fast as a lightning
before the children were grown
they’d ride her like a pony
through the nodding banners yesterday
she went in chase of a ship’s rat
at my wit’s end i finally located her
under a whining bush, my poor old lady, seized by a fit
[verse 4]
when the raiders came in their flaming carriages
she went running to her family
while i listened on, cowering behind a pile of logs
there’s no denying it
i sold my shoes so i could buy a chicken
a penance and a treat on her final day
now she is gone i carry her down to the sea
and scream to the sinking stars
“can you ever forgive me?”
