Текст песни: Stable Boy + перевод

Way, hey, listen to me play

Won’t you throw but a shilling

Or a copper, my way?

Tales of life, love, sorrow and joy

Are the songs that are sung

By the stable boy

Well, I dream of the life

Of a bard on the road

Yet, the wages they pay

Would scarcely feed the load

So with hoe in my hand

And with rake at my side

I would care after horses

For the ladies to ride

Way, hey, listen to me play

Won’t you throw but a shilling

Or a copper, my way?

Tales of life, love, sorrow and joy

Are the songs that are sung

By the stable boy

Well, the farmer, he calls me

Into his big home, saying

«Pretty stable boy

On the road you now must roam

«Though you do fine work

I admit that is true

I have found me a man

Who will work for half as you!»

Way, hey, listen to me play

Won’t you throw but a shilling

Or a copper, my way?

Tales of life, love, sorrow and joy

Are the songs that are sung

By the stable boy

Well, I woke the next morning

The sky was bright blue

And the farmer, he said

«There's a favor you must do

«I've a gathering of orphans

With no where to be

You must teach them to ride

So that they can work for me!»

Way, hey, listen to me play

Won’t you throw but a shilling

Or a copper, my way?

Tales of life, love, sorrow and joy

Are the songs that are sung

By the stable boy

Well, we work every morning

And ride every day

We muck out the stalls

And we feed the horses hay

We’re such excellent workers

The foremen believes

I could own this estate

With my band of little thieves

Way, hey, listen to me play

Won’t you throw but a shilling

Or a copper, my way?

Tales of life, love, sorrow and joy

Are the songs that are sung

By the stable boy

Way, hey, listen to me play

Won’t you throw but a shilling

Or a copper, my way?

Tales of life, love, sorrow and joy

Are the songs that are sung

By the stable boy
