Rover |
| I chase your every footstep and I follow every whim |
| When you call the tune I’m ready to strike up the battle hymn |
| My lady of the meadows --- |
| My comber of the beach --- |
| You’ve thrown the stick for your dog’s trick but it’s floating out of reach |
| The long road is a rainbow and the pot of gold lies there |
| So slip the chain and I’m off again --- |
| You’ll find me everywhere |
| Cause I’m a Rover |
| As the robin craves the summer to hide his smock of red |
| I need the pillow of your hair in which to hide my head |
| I’m simple in my sadness, resourceful in remorse |
| Then I’m down straining at the lead --- |
| Holding on a windward course |
| The long road is a rainbow and the pot of gold lies there |
| So slip the chain and I’m off again --- |
| You’ll find me everywhere |
| Cause I’m a Rover |
| Strip me from the bundle of balloons at every fair: |
| Colourful and carefree --- |
| Designed to make you stare |
| But I’m lost and I’m losing the thread that holds me down |
| And I’m up hot and rising in the lights of every town |
| The long road is a rainbow and the pot of gold lies there |
| So slip the chain and I’m off again --- |
| You’ll find me everywhere |
| Cause I’m a Rover |
