Oak & Ash & Thorn |
| Of all the trees that grow so fair, old England to adorn |
| Greater are none beneath the sun than Oak, and Ash, and Thorn |
| Sing Oak, and Ash, and Thorn, good sirs |
| All on a midsummer’s morn |
| Surely we’ll sing of no little thing |
| In Oak, and Ash, and Thorn |
| Yew that is old, in churchyard mold, he breedeth a mighty bow |
| Alder for shoes do wise men choose, and Beech for cups also |
| But when you have killed, and your bowl it is filled, and your shoes are clean |
| outworn |
| Back you must speed for all that you need to Oak, and Ash, and Thorn |
| Sing Oak, and Ash, and Thorn, good sirs |
| All on a midsummer’s morn |
| Surely we’ll sing of no little thing |
| In Oak, and Ash, and Thorn |
| Sing Oak, and Ash, and Thorn, good sirs |
| All on a midsummer’s morn |
| Surely we’ll sing of no little thing |
| In Oak, and Ash, and Thorn |
| Well Elm, she hates mankind and waits, til every gust be laid |
| To drop a limb on the head of him that anyway trusts her shade |
| But whether a lad be sober or sad, or mellow with ale from the horn |
| He’ll take no wrong when he lieth along 'neath Oak, and Ash, and Thorn |
| Sing Oak, and Ash, and Thorn, good sirs |
| All on a midsummer’s morn |
| Surely we’ll sing of no little thing |
| In Oak, and Ash, and Thorn |
| Sing Oak, and Ash, and Thorn, good sirs |
| All on a midsummer’s morn |
| Surely we’ll sing of no little thing |
| In Oak, and Ash, and Thorn |
| Oh, do not tell the priest our plight, for he would call it a sin |
| But we’ve been out in the woods all night, a-conjuring summer in |
| We bring you good news by word of mouth, good news for cattle and corn |
| Sure as the sun come up from the south, by Oak, and Ash, and Thorn |
| Sing Oak, and Ash, and Thorn, good sirs |
| All on a midsummer’s morn |
| Surely we’ll sing of no little thing |
| In Oak, and Ash, and Thorn |
| Sing Oak, and Ash, and Thorn, good sirs |
| All on a midsummer’s morn |
| Surely we’ll sing of no little thing |
| In Oak, and Ash, and Thorn |
| Sing Oak, and Ash, and Thorn, good sirs |
| All on a midsummer’s morn |
| Surely we’ll sing of no little thing |
| In Oak, and Ash, and Thorn |
| Sing Oak, and Ash, and Thorn, good sirs |
| All on a midsummer’s morn |
| Surely we’ll sing of no little thing |
| In Oak, and Ash, and Thorn |
