lyrics

The Angel's Share

Upon the hill where the barley’s grown
The sun falls warm and the wind blows cold
From the moor we cut the peat
Taste it when the dram is neat

Now bring the water from the well
From under stone and over fell
For months and years she sleeps away
In oaken casks through night and day
-
And so the breathing wood abides
With the fall and rising tides
Escape thy tender molecule
Attain a lofty altitude
-
Hey Ho! Rise and go
Swing me round my calico
On a wing and on a prayer
Come and take your angels share
-
Sally’s coming through the rye
I seen her yonder riding high
With bracken hair and raven eyes
She kissed the boys and made them sigh
-
I wandered here into this town
And found good comfort all around
The men were kind and the women sweet
We’ll raise a glass and then repeat.

Hey Ho! Rise and go
Swing me round my calico
On a wing and on a prayer
Come and take your angels share
-
Hey Ho! Rise and go
Such a lovely afterglow
Mountain thyme and maidenhair
Come and take your angels share
