Come All Ye Composer(s): Sandy Denny; Ashley Hutchings Performer(s): Fairport Convention
Come all ye rolling minstrels And together we will try To rouse the spirit of the air And move the rolling sky
Those that dance will start to dance And those who don't will sway In time to this our merry tune That we play for you today
So come all ye rolling minstrels And together we will try To rouse the spirit of the air And move the rolling sky
Our fiddler, he just loves to play And that's why he plays so good And now he plays a violin Made out of solid wood
So come all ye rolling minstrels And together we will try To rouse the spirit of the air And move the rolling sky
Possessor of the magic touch But no magician, he Will play for you some magic notes Instead as you will see
So come all ye rolling minstrels And together we will try To rouse the spirit of the air And move the rolling sky
The sound of beating on the drums From behind you hear And to the rhythm of guitar We hope you'll lend an ear
So come all ye rolling minstrels And together we will try To rouse the spirit of the air And move the rolling sky
Well, the man who plays the bass does make Those low notes that you hear And the high notes come from you and me For we will sing so clear
So come all ye rolling minstrels And together we will try To rouse the spirit of the air And move the rolling sky
