Here's a health to the jolly blacksmith
The best of all fellows
He works at his anvil
While the boy blows the bellows
Which makes his bright hammer
To rise and to fall
Here's to old coal, and to young coal
And to no coal at all.
Twanky dillo, twanky dillo
Twanky dillo, dillo, dillo, dillo
And a roaring pair of bagpipes
Made from the green willow.
If a gentleman comes
His horse for to shoe
He will make no denial
Of one pot or two
Which makes his bright hammer
To rise and to fall
Here's to old coal, and to young coal
And to no coal at all.
Twanky dillo, twanky dillo
Twanky dillo, dillo, dillo, dillo
And a roaring pair of bagpipes
Made from the green willow
Here's a health to King Charlie
And likewise the queen
And to all the royal little ones
Where'ere they are seen
Which makes his bright hammer
To rise and to fall
Here's to old coal, and to young coal
And to no coal at all.
Twanky dillo, twanky dillo
Twanky dillo, dillo, dillo, dillo
And a roaring pair of bagpipes
Made from the green willow
Here's a health to the pretty girl
The one I love best
She kindles her fire
All in her own breast
Which makes his bright hammer
To rise and to fall
Here's to old coal, and to young coal
And to no coal at all.
Twanky dillo, twanky dillo
Twanky dillo, dillo, dillo, dillo
And a roaring pair of bagpipes
Made from the green willow
Okay it is too hard to choose one favorite track but Oak & Ash & Thorn is the first song of TLJ I heard and it's just THE song of the year for me. I am READY for adventures. twofeatheredarrow
