The Darby Ram by The Kossoy Sisters with Erik Darling Lyrics
[Verse 1]
As I went out to Darby
All on a market day
And I spied the biggest ram, sir
That was ever fed on hay
[Chorus]
And he rambled, rambled
Rambled all around
In and out of town did he ramble
He did ramble
Well, he rambled 'til them butchers cut him down
[Verse 2]
He had four feet to walk, sir
He had four feet to stand
And everyone of those four feet
They covered an acre of land
[Chorus]
And he rambled, rambled
Rambled all around
In and out of town did he ramble
He did ramble
Well, he rambled 'til them butchers cut him down
[Verse 3]
The wool on this ram's back, sir
It reached up to the sky
And the eagles built their nests there
For I heard the young ones cry
[Chorus]
And he rambled, rambled
Rambled all around
In and out of town did he ramble
He did ramble
Well, he rambled 'til them butchers cut him down
[Verse 4]
This ram had a horn, sir
That reached up to the moon
A man went up in January
And he didn't get back 'til June
[Chorus]
And he rambled, rambled
Rambled all around
In and out of town did he ramble
He did ramble
Well, he rambled 'til them butchers cut him down
[Verse 5]
The butcher that cut him down, sir
Was drownded in the blood
And the little boy who held the bowl
Was washed away in the flood
[Chorus]
And he rambled, rambled
Rambled all around
In and out of town did he ramble
He did ramble
Well, he rambled 'til them butchers cut him down
As I went out to Darby
All on a market day
And I spied the biggest ram, sir
That was ever fed on hay
[Chorus]
And he rambled, rambled
Rambled all around
In and out of town did he ramble
He did ramble
Well, he rambled 'til them butchers cut him down
[Verse 2]
He had four feet to walk, sir
He had four feet to stand
And everyone of those four feet
They covered an acre of land
[Chorus]
And he rambled, rambled
Rambled all around
In and out of town did he ramble
He did ramble
Well, he rambled 'til them butchers cut him down
[Verse 3]
The wool on this ram's back, sir
It reached up to the sky
And the eagles built their nests there
For I heard the young ones cry
[Chorus]
And he rambled, rambled
Rambled all around
In and out of town did he ramble
He did ramble
Well, he rambled 'til them butchers cut him down
[Verse 4]
This ram had a horn, sir
That reached up to the moon
A man went up in January
And he didn't get back 'til June
[Chorus]
And he rambled, rambled
Rambled all around
In and out of town did he ramble
He did ramble
Well, he rambled 'til them butchers cut him down
[Verse 5]
The butcher that cut him down, sir
Was drownded in the blood
And the little boy who held the bowl
Was washed away in the flood
[Chorus]
And he rambled, rambled
Rambled all around
In and out of town did he ramble
He did ramble
Well, he rambled 'til them butchers cut him down
