Sportsmen, Arouse! (Bob & Ron) Lyrics
Sportsmen, Arouse!(Bob & Ron) - The Copper Family
Sportsmen arouse the morning is clear
The larks are singing all in the air
Sportsmen arouse the morning is clear
The larks are singing all in the air
Go and tell your sweet lover
The hounds are out
Go and tell your sweet lover
The hounds are out
Saddle your horses your saddles prepare
We'll away to some cover to seek for a hare
We searched the woods
And the groves all round
The trial being over the game it is found
We searched the woods
And the groves all round
The trial being over the game it is found
Then off she springs through brake she flies
Then off she springs through brake she flies
Follow follow the musical horn
Sing follow hark forward the innocent hare
Our huntsman blows his joyful sound
Tally ho my boys all over the downs
Our huntsman blows his joyful sound
Tally ho my boys all over the downs
From the woods to the valleys
See how she creeps
From the woods to the valleys
See how she creeps
Follow follow the musical horn
Sing follow hark forward the innocent hare
All along the green turf she pants for breath
Our huntsman he shouts out for death
All along the green turf she pants for breath
Our huntsman he shouts out for death
Relope relope retiring hare
Relope relope retiring hare
Follow follow the musical horn
Sing follow hark forward the innocent hare
This hare has led us a noble run
Success to sportsmen every one
This hare has led us a noble run
Success to sportsmen every one
Such a chase she has led us
Four hours or more
Such a chase she has led us
Four hours or more
Wine and beer we'll drink without fear
We'll drink a success to the innocent hare
