The Young’uns – The Brisk Lad Lyrics

Artist: The Young’uns
Song: The Brisk Lad

I am a brisk lad, me fortune is bad
In fact I am wondrous poor
But it’s I do intend my fortune to mend
I’ll build a house down on the moor, me brave boys

I will build a house down on the moor
Me father does keep fat oxen and sheep
With a neat little nag on the down
But in the middle of the night, when the moon does shine bright

There’s a number of jobs to be done, me brave boys
There’s a number of jobs to be done
So I’ll roam around on another man’s ground
And I’ll take a fat ewe from his pack

And with the aid of my knife, I’ll shorten its life
And I’ll carry it home on me back, me brave boys
And I’ll carry it home on me back
My children will pull the skin from the wool

And I’ll carve it up to the bone
And when the constable does come I’ll stand there with me gun
And I’ll swear all I have is me own, me brave boys
And I’ll swear all I have is me own

I am a brisk lad, me fortune is bad
In fact I am wondrous poor
But it’s I do intend my fortune to mend
I’ll build a house down on the moor, me brave boys

I will build a house down on the moor
