Lyrics: William Shakespeare
Under the greenwood tree,
Who loves to lie with me,
And turn his merry note
Unto the sweet bird's throat,
Come hither.
Here shall he see no enemy
But winter and rough weather.
Who doth ambition shun,
And loves to live in the sun,
Seeking the food he eats,
Well pleased with what he gets,
Come hither.
Here shall he see no enemy
But winter and rough weather.
Under the greenwood tree,
Who loves to lie with me,
And turn his merry note
Unto the sweet bird's throat,
Come hither.
Here shall he see no enemy
But winter and rough weather.
Who doth ambition shun,
And loves to live in the sun,
Seeking the food he eats,
Well pleased with what he gets,
Come hither.
Here shall he see no enemy
But winter and rough weather.
