Salisbury Plain |
Oh, Salisbury Plain is bleak and bare |
all least so I’ve heart many people declare |
for I fairly confess I never was there |
Oh, Salisbury Plain is bleak and bare |
all least so I’ve heart many people declare |
for I fairly confess I never was there |
not a shrub nor a tree |
nor a bush can we see |
no hedges, no ditches, no gates, no styles |
much less a house or a cottage for miles |
it’s a very sad thing to be cought in the rain |
when night comes on Salisbury Plain |
no many miles from Salisbury town |
maybe you’ve seen when you get around |
the standing stones of great reknown |
and the devil did he dare |
take them from Kildare |
did he hide, did he ride, did he fly, so high |
up and away, far away in teh sky |
I bet he never got caught in the rain |
when night came on Salisbury Plain |
Salisbury Plain, Salisbury Plain, Salisbury Plain |
Salisbury Plain, Salisbury Plain, Salisbury Plain |
well, do you know how they got there |
Oh Salisbury Plain so bleak and bare |
a monument so fine and rare |
and Merlin, did he hurry here from South Cadbury |
said for Arthur and England his magical rhymes |
must have really been the sight of the times |
i wonder if we got caught in the rain |
when night came on Salisbury Plain |
Salisbury Plain, Salisbury Plain, Salisbury Plain |
Salisbury Plain, Salisbury Plain, Salisbury Plain |
