letra de john barleycorn - vulcan's hammer
now, there come three men out to kent, me boys
for to plow for the wheat and the rye
and these three men made a solemn vow
john barleycorn should die
and so, they plowed and they sowed and they harrowed him in
and they sowed rye on his head
and these three men a-rejoicing they went
john barleycorn was dead
but the sun shone bright and the wind blew soft
and it rained in a day or so
john barleycorn felt the wind and the rain
and he soon began to grow
but the rye began to grow as well
and the rye grew slow and tall
john barleycorn grew quick and short
and he proved them liars all
and so they hired men with sickles
to cut him off at the knee
but the worst of all, john barleycorn
they served him barbarously
for they hired men with [pie-klz?]
to toss him onto a [lord?]
and when they tossed john barleycorn
they tied him down with cord
and they hired men with threshels
to beat him high and low
they came, smick-a-smack upon poor jack’s back
’til the flesh began to flow
and then they put him into the kiln, me boys
thinking to dry his bones
and when he came out, john barleycorn
they crushed him between two stones
and they put him into the mashing tub
thinking to burn his [tail?]
and when he came out, they changed his name
for they called him home-brewed ale
and so, put your wine into glasses
and your cider in pewter cans
but john barleycorn in the old brown jug
for he proves the strongest man
[vocables]
