Subject: RE: Lyr Add: Goodbye (from 'White Horse Inn') From: GUEST Date: 05 Feb 24 - 04:23 AM When I was in primary school in Queensland in the mid '50s, we learnt a lot of great songs, including this one. Plus the Riff Song: Over the ground there comes a sound it is the drum, drum, drum of hoof-beats in the sand. Quiver with fear if you are near it is the thunder of the "shadow" and his band. And, all who plunder learn to understand, to understand the cry of Ho! so we sing as we are riding ho! it's a time you best be hiding low, it means the riffs are abroad, go, before you've bitten the sword. ho! that's the sound that comes to warn you. so! in the night or early morning, you know, if you're the "red shadow's" foe, the riffs will strike with a blow, that brings you woe. Ho! so we sing as we are riding ho! it's a time you best be hiding low, it means the riffs are abroad, go, before you've bitten the sword. ho! that's the sound that comes to warn you. so! in the night or early morning, you know, if you're the "red shadow's" foe, the riffs will strike with a blow, that brings you woe. |

Subject: RE: Lyr Add: Goodbye (White Horse Inn) From: Micca Date: 02 Nov 99 - 09:25 AM Yeah Josef Locke (note spelling) sang this and it has been re-released on CD in the last few years. It also featured in the Movie "Hear My Song" I remember it vividly as a song one of my Uncles sang for my Grandmother(who was blind) on Boxing day when I was about 4 years old and followed it with "Hear my Song, Violetta" |

Subject: Lyr Add: GOODBYE (from 'White Horse Inn') From: John in Brisbane Date: 31 Oct 99 - 09:34 PM Not folk, but a great sing - I had to do the typing for a friend and thought I'd share the lyrics. I haven't tried to find the score yet. Do I have the title and name of the show correct? Regards, John
GOODBYE
My heart is broken; but what care I?
CHORUS
I'm sick of standing behind a chair,
Goodbye, goodbye, I wish you all a last goodbye. |
