The Hunter Lyrics
The Hunter - The Kingston Trio
The hunter
He did cross the plain
And then he ventured home again
The merry merry feast will soon begin
Among the leaves so green-o
Jackie boy
Master
Sing ye well
Very well
Hey down hoe down derry derry down
Among the leaves so green-o
To my hey down down hoe down down
Hey down hoe down derry derry down
Among the leaves so green-o
The hunter is a cheerful sight
His hearth is warm
His fire bright
His songs they fill the winter night among the leaves so green-o
To my hey down down
Hoe down down
Hey down hoe down derry derry down
Among the leaves so green-o
Jackie boy
Master
Sing ye well
Very well
Hey down hoe down derry derry down
Among the leaves so green-o
'Tis merry we are and merry we'll stay
We'll sing a toast 'till the break of day
And start again upon our way
Among the leaves so green-o
Jackie boy
Master
Sing ye well
Very well
Hey down hoe down derry derry down
Among the leaves so green-o
To my hey down down hoe down down
Hey down hoe down derry derry down
Among the leaves so green-o
Jackie boy
Master
Sing ye well
Very well
Hey down hoe down derry derry down
Among the leaves so green-o
To my hey down down hoe down down
Hey down hoe down derry derry down
Among the leaves so green-o green-o green-o
Hey down hoe down derry derry down
Hey down hoe down derry derry down
Hey down hoe down derry derry down
