Oyster Band Lyrics of the Hal An Tow track

Take the scorn and wear the horns

It was the crest when you were born

Your father's father wore it

And your father wore it too



Robin Hood and Little John

Have both gone to the fair-o

We shall to the merry green wood

To hunt the buck and hare-o



Hal-an-Tow, jolly rumbelow

We were up long before the day-o

To welcome in the summertime

To welcome in the May-o

For summer is coming in

And winter's gone away



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



God bless Aunt Mary Moses

With all her power and might-o

Send us peace in England

Send us peace by day and night-o
