Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Parafin Lamp Selller - Watt Nicol From: Kenny B (inactive) Date: 24 Mar 12 - 12:33 PM Paraffin Lamp Seller Watt Nicoll Trottin down the country lanes , The pony and the cart Its a heavy load and a heavy road, He's heavy in his heart Crack no whip, he just nods his head , tae makes that horse run fast Wi his wooden dolls and heather brooms And paraffin lamps of brass He's got to make the market to try to sell his wares To earn the cost of bread and a crust, While the weathers cold and grey Been on the road a long long time, sixty-three years past Wi his wooden dolls and heather brooms And paraffin lamps of brass Its forty years or forty-two, since Jamie he was as born And he carved a special wooden doll, for his first and only son A happy laughin Jamie, he's playin on the grass Wi his wooden dolls and heather brooms And paraffin lamps of brass On his right side is a peddlar , He's tall he's strong he's young Sellin dolls and brooms and paraffin Three for the price of one The old lad he doesnt sell at all Till the the young one sells his last His wooden dolls and heather brooms And paraffin lamps of brass Now he's only made a copper, to buy the pony's grain His work is done, he leaves this town and shuts the shop again Its Jamie's name above the door but the old man ambles past The windows full of dolls and heather brooms And paraffin lamps of brass Now he died up in the workhouse And the bell didnt even toll His last request was do your best for the pony cos he's old And the pony never heard it To another hand he passed Like the wooden dolls and heather brooms And paraffin lamps of brass Rpt last 2 lines |
