Текст песни Poorboy (The Greenwood) - Electric Light Orchestra

Me, I'm just a poor boy from across the far South lands
And I've traveled many days to reach this place, to make my stand
Oh, and I fell in with a merry band and drank away the hours
Rollin' on, I've been rollin' on
And my head is high from the battle won
Laid down my life for the Greenwood
The city boys and the country boys, they come from miles around
To defy their King and country, save the poor folks from the hands
Of the thieving dukes and abbots and the gentry of the land
Rollin' on, I've been rollin' on
And my head is high from the battle won
Laid down my life for the Greenwood
Sweet maid Marion, don't you do me no wrong
Stay on the right side, the Greenwood is your home
All the dancing girls and the open fires
And the wine that flows like water
Rollin' on, I've been rollin' on
And my head is high from the battle won
Laid down my life for the Greenwood
