ONE FROM THE FURIES
Well a piper sat down to play, His pipe he began to tune A fox chase the hare someone say And it echoed around the room.
Now a fox run far for a hu u untar To make him stand and cheer Or is it for that little red dog That we all fill with fear
(Ah fox, fox you little red fox Heart beating in your breast The hounds they do all follow you And still you cannot rest)
Well the horses they race after you Their bodies all foamed with sweat And their half crazed masters riding them Their minds all filled with death
Now with their minds set forth on the hunt For you to kill their set And not fearing for their own sweet lives The fox they have to get
(Ahh) When the dogs they chase after you Their tong's loll left and right And they scent the kill ahead of them But your ends not yet in sight
But as they pass the coal black corns Their barks grow loud and clear And its then this little red doggy knows Its death is drawing near (Ahh) Now men and dogs they gather round For his life he fights to win But the hunter's horn it sounded then And they tore him limb from limb
So piper, play your last lament A sad sunset in your mind For this little red dog that was torn to shreds His life ended by mankind (Ahh fox, fox you little red fox)
