Hal An Tow

Since man was first created, These words have been debated That we have celebrated The coming of the Spring

Chorus: Hal-an-Tow, jolly rumble-O We were up long before the day-O To welcome in the summer To welcome in the May-O For summer is a-comin' in And winter's gone away-O

Take no scorn to wear the horn It was the crest when you were born Your father's father wore it And your father wore it too

[Chorus]

What happened to the Spaniards That made so great a boast-O? They shall eat the feathered goose And we shall eat the roast-O

[Chorus]

Robin Hood and Little John They've both gone to the fair-O And we will to the merry green wood To hunt the buck and hare oh

[Chorus]

God bless the merry muses With all their power and might-O And send this peace to England Let peace be day and night-O

[Chorus]
