John Barleycorn

There were three men came from the west
Their fortunes for to tell
And the life of John Barleycorn, as well
 
They've laid him in three furrows deep
Laid clods upon his head
Then these three men made a solemn vow
John Barleycorn was dead, John Barleycorn was dead
 
They let him lie for a very long time
'Til the rain from heaven did fall
But little sir John sprang up his head
He did amaze them all, he did amaze them all
 
They let him stand 'til a midsummer's day
'Til he looked both pale and wan
And little sir John, he grew a long beard
He so became a man, he so became a man
 
Fa la la la, it's a lovely day
Sing "fa la la lay-yo"
Fa la la, fa la la it's a lovely day
Singing "fa la la lay-yo"
 
So, they've hired men with a scythe so sharp
To cut him off at the knee
They've rolled and tied him around the waist
They've served him barbarously
They've served him barbarously
 
Fa la la la, it's a lovely day
Sing "fa la la lay-yo"
Fa la la, fa la la it's a lovely day
Singing "fa la la lay-yo"
 
They've hired men with the crabtree sticks
To cut him skin from bone
The miller, he has served him worse than that
He's ground him between two stones
He's ground him between two stones
 
And they've wheeled him here
And they've wheeled him there
They've wheeled him to a barn
And then, they have served him worse than that
They bunged him in a vat
They bunged him in a vat
 
Fa la la la, it's a lovely day
Sing "fa la la lay-yo"
Fa la la, fa la la it's a lovely day
Singing "fa la la lay-yo"
 
Well, they've worked their will on John Barleycorn
But he lived to tell the tale
For they pour him out of an old brown jug
And they call him home-brewed ale
They call him home-brewed ale
 
Fa la la la, it's a lovely day
Sing "fa la la lay-yo"
Fa la la, fa la la it's a lovely day
Singing "fa la la lay-yo"
Fa la la, fa la la la, it's a lovely day
Sing "fa la la lay-yo"
Fa la la, fa la la it's a lovely day
Singing "fa la la lay-yo"
Fa la la, fa la la la, it's a lovely day
Sing "fa la la lay-yo"
Fa la la, fa la la it's a lovely day
Singing "fa la la lay-yo"
