Текст песни Batchelors Hall - Steeleye Span

Batchelors Hall

I rode seven horses all to death\nI rode them till they had no breath\nI wore five saddles to the trees\nNone of those girls will marry me.\nThose women will fret, those women will fuss\nThey spend five hours before their glass\nThe devil take all, I’ll have no money at all\nAlways stay single, keep Batchelors' Hall.\nStay stay close to my door\nThe women round here, they live by the door\nThey hear but a word, and repeat it twice o’er\nThen they add it as much as they can\nAlways stay single a bachelor man.\nBatchelors' Hall is always the best\nIf you’re sick drunk or sober it’s always a rest\nNo woman to scold you, no children to bawl\nAlways stay single, keep Batchelors' Hall.\nStay stay close to my door\nBatchelors' Hall, Batchelors' Hall,\nI’ll always stay single, keep Batchelors' Hall.
