WOLF IN THE CLOVER
(Bob Coltman)

Hang your head in the cold soft snow,
Cold soft snow all alone,
For the snow girl's laughing and she says it's time,
Little wolf, it's time for you to go,

CHORUS
Little wolf in the clover,
Too tired to chase the sheep,
I'll hold back the shepherd's arm
And let you go to sleep.

Little fat wolf in the warm sunshine,
Remember how you loved to rub
Up against your grey mother's side
When you were a big-footed cub,

But now you're alone in the winter,
Shiv'ring and shaggy and thin,
You've left no trail to find you by,
And you can't remember where you've been,
CHORUS

Dogs have hunted you down in the fields
Where the little wolf cub used to play,
Restless ladies have bitten your nose,
And your hungers have led you astray,
CHORUS

There's nobody left to remember
What the little wolf cub has done,
And there's nobody left to notice
That the little wolf cub is gone,
CHORUS

Just pretend you're back in the clover now,
Happy and tired and round,
You've been lost along time on the wrong kinds of roads,
Little wolf, it's time you were found,
CHORUS
