paroles de chanson The Tale of Robin Hood - Chris de Burgh

Come near to me and I will tell the tale of Robin Hood
I know he was a nobleman, was for the common good
A man of the people and a hero to us all
For he robbed from the rich, and he gave it to the poor
Now he was born a Locksley in the shire of Nottingham
Our story will begin when the boy became a man
A master of the blade and bow, a horseman fine
With an eye for the ladies and for music, food and wine
Ah-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la, ah-la-la-la-la-la-la
Ah-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
With an eye for the ladies and for music, food and wine
To Sherwood Forest a-hunting he would go
And there with Guy of Gisborne vie with sword and bow
For everybody knew they were childhood friends
A jealousy and envy would break them in the end
In the end
So now we join Robin on his wedding day
And celebrate a union in which he had no say
To Marian, his father would have him wed
To bring power and riches through the wedding bed
Ah-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la, ah-la-la-la-la-la-la
Ah-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la, ah-la-la-la-la-la-la
Ah-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la, ah-la-la-la-la-la-la
Ah-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
To bring power and riches through the wedding bed
