| | | Artist: | Unknown |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Leatherheaded Songsters | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 152 | | | | Lyrics: | LEATHER-HEADED SONGSTERS
cho: You leather-headed songsters who will mutilate the song
(2x)
You sailor laddies great and small
I pray you lend an ear
Attention pay
and you straightaway
A tale of truth shall hear,
About those louts who we
despise
Correct us if we're wrong
You leather etc.
They do not care for
meter
They do not care for rhyme
A song they'll slash and fiercely dash
We've heard
it manys the time
One line short full it sadly limps
The other steps too long
You
leather etc.
It is the jolly sailor man
Who does delight to sing
He'll pick his
choice and with his voice
The welkin make to ring;
But though one sad voice
Be loud
or harsh
It generally is strong
You leather etc.
And when his voice is
out
With lofty whoops and howls,
You wolves would swear
And, yes, declare
Around
your shack it prowls.
Such once one never could believe
To mortal did belong,
You
leather etc.
Sometimes it is a song of love
Sometimes a song marine
Or a song
of war bedaubed with gore
Or maybe, song of sea.
But as a rule
'Tis of a
maid
Subjected unto wrong
You leather etc.
So you songsters all
Both great
and small
Who essay us to charm,
Even though your yells be worse then knells
We wish
to you no harm;
But Hades blight we boldly lay
And lay it on full strong
On you
etc.
Heard from Dick Swain
From Minstrelsy of Maine
