There’s a village that I love in Leicestershire
Always had my heart enthralled
Where the stars are bright above in Leicestershire
Believe it or not it’s called

Ashby De La Zouch Castle Abbey
That’s the only place that I long to be
Skies are full of blue
And the cows are full of moo
In Ashby De La Zouch By the sea

Ashby De La Zouch Castle Abbey
It’s a little bit of heaven to me
Girls have pretty curls
And the boys have pretty girls
In Ashby De La Zouch by the sea

It’s just a little hum-drum place
But you’ll be glad that you came
It’s such a beautiful someplace
Ain’t it a shame that it’s got such a name

Ashby De La Zouch Castle Abbey,
That’s the only place where I long to be
If you want a smooch
And be happy as a pooch
Go to Ashby De La Zouch by the sea
