Lyrics
Cold Mountain water
the jade merchant's daughter
Mountains of the Moon, Bow and bend to me
Hi ho the Carrion Crow
Folderolderiddle
Hi Ho the Carrion Crow
Bow and bend to me
Hey Tom Banjo
Hey a laurel
More than laurel
You may sow
More than laurel
You may sow
Hey the laurel
Hey the city
In the rain
Hey, hey,
Hey the white wheat
Waving in the wind
20 degrees of solitude
20 degrees in all
All the dancing kings & wives
assembled in the hall
Lost is a long & lonely time
Fairy Sybil flying
All along the all along
the Mountains of the Moon
Here is feast of solitude
A fiddler grim and tall
Plays to dancing kings and wives
Assembled in the hall
Of lost, long, lonely times
Fairy Sibil flying
All along the all along
the Mountains of the Moon
Hey Tom Banjo
It's time to matter
The Earth will see you
on through this time
The Earth will see you on
through this time
Down by the water
The Marsh King's Daughter
Did you know?
Clothed in tatters
Always will be
Tom, where did you go?
Mountains of the Moon, Electra
Mountains of the Moon
All along the
All along the
Mountains of the Moon
Hi Ho the Carrion Crow
Folderolderiddle
Hi Ho the Carrion Crow
Bow and bend to me
Bend to me
