paroles de chanson A Shropshire Lad: VI. Is My Team Ploughing? - George Butterworth



Is my team ploughing
That I was used to drive
And hear the harness jingle
As I was man alive
Ay, the horses trample
The harness jingles now
No change though you lie under
The land you used to plough
Is football playing
Along the river shore
With lads to chase the leather
Now I stand up no more
Ay, the ball is flying
The lads play heart and soul
The goal stands up the keeper
Stands up to keep the goal
Is my girl happy
That I thought hard to leave
And has she tired of weeping
As she lies down at eve.
Ay, she lies down lightly
She lies not down to weep
Your girl is well contented
Be, still, my lad and sleep
Is my friend hearty
Now I am thin and pine
And has he found to sleep in
A better bed than mine
Yes, lad, I lie easy
I lie as lads would choose
I cheer a dead man's sweetheart
Never ask me whose.
