Lyrics Ram of Darby - Pete Seeger

As I went in to Darby
All on a Market Day,
I saw the largest ram, sir,
That was ever fed on hay.
And he rambled, rambled all around
In and out of town did he ramble,
And he rambled til them butchers cut him down.

This ram had four feet, sir,
Four feet on which to stand,
And each one of his hooves sir
covered an 40 acres of land.

he rambled, rambled all around
In and out of town did he ramble,
And he rambled til them butchers cut him down.

The wool upon his back, sir,
It reached up to the sky;
The eagles made their nests there,
You could hear the young ones cry.

he rambled, rambled all around
In and out of town did he ramble,
And he rambled til them butchers cut him down.

The horns upon his head, sir,
They Reached up to the moon;
A man climbed up in January,
And didn't come down 'til June.

he rambled, rambled all around
In and out of town did he ramble,
And he rambled til them butchers cut him down.

The wool that grew upon his tail,
If you had sheared it off,
Would have made the finest tailors
A hundred yards of cloth.

he rambled, rambled all around
In and out of town did he ramble,
And he rambled til them butchers cut him down.

The Butcher that cut him down sir,
He drownded in the blood.
And the little boy who held the bowl,
Was washed away in the flood.

he rambled, rambled all around
In and out of town did he ramble,
And he rambled til them butchers cut him down.
