Medieval Days

You probably read about the medieval days
Not to mention 'bout the music was played
Soul pickin' troubadours strummin' on lyres
People comin' out the wheat fields from miles and miles

Everybody headed for the castle gate
Drawbridge overloaded and it's bound to break
But they kept on soulin', they kept on soulin'

Big fat greedy king, a damsel on his wing
Drumstick in his mouth and he's trying to sing
Grease just a-running all down on his chin
Kissin' the damsel again and again

Everybody headed for the castle gate
Drawbridge overloaded and it's bound to break
They were soulin', they kept on soulin'

They kept on a-soulin', they kept on soulin'
Kept on a-soulin'

Dear old queen lie asleep in bed
After dinner, drink had went to her head
Her maids saw that she was all tucked in
The king had slipped her a Mickey Finn

King's so glad that the queen ain't around
He's outside lettin' his hair down
They kept on soulin', they kept on soulin'

The bridge broke, they fell in the moat
Somebody yelled, "Throw the king a rope!"
On the way up, the rope it snapped
The queen had risen from her evening nap

Won't somebody tell me what's a-goin' on?
But she was in the palace all along
They were down there soulin', they kept on a-soulin'

They kept a-rockin' and a-rollin'
I said they kept on a-soulin'
The jugglers kept a-jugglin'
Everybody kept a-soulin'
Said the music kept a-rollin'
Everybody's soakin' wet
The king's on the floor
