Lyrics Join Our Lusty Chorus - Alasdair Roberts

Join Our Lusty Chorus

Sportsmen, arouse!
The morning is clear
The larks are singing all in the air
Thy soaring and sweet refrain
Rings out to fill the air before us
Bring me the fine ale, and the cider and the wine
Link arms and join our lusty chorus
Oh Gamekeeper Roberts, please spare me my life
Though I bagged a brace of fine hair in your forest
For I’m pledged to a girl who will soon be my wife
Link arms and join our lusty chorus
And I knew when I first saw her
I would marry her, oh
For I sowed the seeds of love
Upon a May morning
And I knew when I first saw her
I would marry her, oh
For I sowed the seeds of love
Upon a May morning
Go tell your sweet lover
The hounds are out
Go tell your sweet lover
The hounds are out
Go tell your sweet lover
The hounds are out
Go tell your sweet lover
The hounds are out
Oh Thomas and Bartleby, Gareth and John
Ryan and Warren, and Hector and Horace
Come follow, come follow, the musical horns
Link arms and join our lusty chorus
