letra de john barleycorn - the mccalmans
[verse 1: singers 1 & 2]
there were three men cam’ frae the west
three men baith great and high
and they beswore a solemn oath
john barleycorn should die
[chorus: all]
oh, oh, john barley
oh john barleycorn
it would break the heart of a dying man
to hear john barley mourn
[verse 2: singers 1 & 2]
well they took a scythe baith long and sharp
and they cut him below the knee
and they tied him fast upon a cart
like a rogue for felony
well they roasted him over a scorching flame
’till the marrow ran out of his bones!
and the millar, he used him worse than that
and crushed him between two stones
[chorus: all]
oh, oh, john barley
oh john barleycorn
it would break the heart of a dying man
to hear john barley mourn
[verse 3: singers 1 & 2]
now john barleycorn, he was a hero bold
of n0ble enterprise
and if you do but taste his blood
it’ll mak’ your courage rise
an’ here’s a health tae john barley
raise your glasses in your hand!
and may he spray prosperity
[to/over?] england [and/or?] scotland (scotland!)
[chorus: all]
oh, oh, john barley
oh john barleycorn
it would break the heart of a dying man
to hear john barley mourn
[outro: all]
oh, oh, john barley
oh john barleycorn
it would break the heart of a dying man
to hear john barley mourn
