Kate Rusby - Some Tyrant Lyrics
Some tyrant has stolen my true love awayAnd here in old England I can no longer stayI'll cross the wide ocean, ne'er on my bed restIn search of my true love that I love the best.When that I've found out my joy and my delightI will welcome her kindly by day and by night.Here's a health to all others that are loyal and justAnd here's confusion to the rivals that lives in distrust.There's Venus and Volum they are both joined as one,So keep yourselves single as you and I have done,So keep yourselves single and constant I'll retireUnto her like some Venus that flourishes like fire.The bugle shall speak and the serpent shall singThere'll be instruments of music for to make the valleys ring.Oh the huntsman he'll holler and the hounds make their noiseFor to fill my love's heart with ten thousand bright joys.Repeat first verseI know not where I'll find the one I love the best
