Just transcribd \Sheeps Crook as follows)

Loud synthesizes mush overlaid with heavy rhythm
Heere's my sheep's croooook and black dooog I'l leave them behind
slight unnecessary gal with smus and heavy rhythm
Here's my baaaag and my budger I'll give it to you (as above)
Heres my sheeps crooook .... etc
(acc to lousd to make out bedinning of next line Laurel ....unkind
All overlauiid with mush and rythm

How one earth is someone wh doesn't know the song supposed to understand that ?

Does it honestly sound like a tale of a sad rural worker lamenting a betrayed love to you ?
