lyrics

THE CUTTY WREN

Oh where are you going said Milder to Malder
Oh we may not tell you said Festle to Fose
We're off to the forest said John the Red Nose
We're off to the forest said John the Red Nose
And what will you do there said Milder to Malder
Oh we may not tell you said Festle to Fose
We´ll shoot the cutty wren, said John the Red Nose
We´ll shoot the cutty wren, said John the Red Nose

And how will you shoot us said Milder to Malder
With bows and with arrows said John the Red Nose
Oh that will not do said Milder to Malder
Great guns and great cannon said John the Red Nose

And how will you fetch her said Milder to Malder
Oh we may not tell you said Festle to Fose
On four strong men's shoulders said John the Red Nose
On four strong men's shoulders said John the Red Nose

Ah that will not do said Milder to Malder
Oh what will do then said Festle to Fose
Great carts and great wagons said John the Red Nose
Great carts and great wagons said John the Red Nose

Oh how will you cut her up said Milder to Malder
With knives and with forks said John the Red Nose
Oh that will not do said Milder to Malder
Great hatchets and cleavers said John the Red Nose

Oh how will you boil her said Milder to Malder
Oh we may not tell you said Festle to Fose
In pots and in kettles said John the Red Nose
In pots and in kettles said John the Red Nose

O that will not do said Milder to Malder
Oh what will do then said Festle to Fose
Bloody great brass cauldrons said John the Red Nose
Bloody great brass cauldrons said John the Red Nose

Oh who'll get the spare ribs said Milder to Malder
We'll give 'em all to the poor said John the Red Nose
We'll give 'em all to the poor said John the Red Nose
