Moonlight

The Prisoner's Song

Melody - a variation of The Ship That Never Returned

 

Meet me by moonlight alone,

And then I will tell you a tale,

Must be told by the moonlight alone,

In the grove at the end of the vale.

You must promise to come, for I said

I would show the night flowers their queen,

Nay, turn not away that sweet head!

'Tis the loveliest ever was seen!

|: Oh! meet me by moonlight alone,

Meet me by moonlight alone!

1. Meet me tonight, lover, meet me,

O meet me in the moonlight alone,

I have a sad story to tell you,

Must be told in the moonlight alone.

2. I'm going to jail to-morrow,

And leave my poor darlin' alone,

With the cold prison bars all around me,

And my head on a pillow of stone.

3. Your father and mother don't like me,

Or they'd never've drove me from their door;

If I had my life to live over

I would never go there no more.

4. I wish I had never been born

Or had died when I was young.

I would never have saw your sweet face

Or heard your lying tongue.

5. If I had a-minded my mother

I had been with her today,

But I was young and foolish

And you stole my heart away.

6. I have three ships on the ocean

all laden with silver and gold;

And before my darlin' should suffer

I'd have them all anchored and sold.

7. If I had the wings of an eagle

Across the wide sea I would fly.

I would fly to the arms of my darling

And there I would stay till I die.

Is this it.

It;s like that but it's the one that the city fans sing about F****t.

Or this ...

IF I HAD THE WINGS

Oh if I had the wings of an angel

And the balls of a big buffalo,

I would fly to the top of a mountain

And piss on you bastards below.

Or this .... This is Right-Wing propaganda aka Watership Down

'Run Like the Wind', music and lyrics by Mike Batt.

    There's an eagle in the Eastern sky,

    turning in the wind,

    out across the evening,

    resting on the wing.

    If I had the wings of an eagle,

    there'd be no holding me:

    I'd be free, sane and free.

(Chorus)

    And one day soon I'm gonna run like the wind,

    one day soon.

    Gonna break away from everything,

    one day soon.

    Nothing in the world's gonna hold me down

    and nothing's gonna keep me in.

    I'm gonna run like the wind.

 

    And if you should tell me

    that you want to hold me down;

    before the glow of morning

    I'll be gone without a sound.

    The more you try to keep me in

    the less you will succeed!

    Sane and free, sane and free.

(Chorus repeats twice to end)

[Wilson]

If I had the wings of an eagle

If I had the arse of a crow

I'd fly over Nottingham Forest

& Shit on the bastards below below...
