Do ye know her sons Of peerless faith Do ye know that a fox With his last breath Cursed them all as he died In the morning? Yes, I know John Peel And auld Ruby, too Ranter and Royal And Bellman so true From the drag to the chase, From the chase to the view From the view to the death In the morning And I've followed John Peel Both often and far O'er the rasper fence And the gate and the bar From Low Denton Holme To the Scratchmere Scar When we vied for the brush In the morning Then here's to John Peel With my heart and soul Come fill, fill to him A brimming bowl For we'll follow John Peel Thro fair or thro foul While we're waked by his horn In the morning |
