The Valentines Day Hunt by The Teacups Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Last Valentine's Day, bright fevers shone clear
And we hadn't been a-hunting in the space of one year
Last Valentine's Day, bright fevers shone clear
And we hadn't been a-hunting in the space of one year
Well I mounted Black Clover, that horse of great fame
For to hear the horns blow, and the words "Tally ho!"
[Refrain]
"Hark, forward!", who cries, "Tally ho! Tally ho!"
"Hark, forward!", who cries, "Tally ho!"
[Verse 2]
"Hark! hark! Into cover! Come (?)", he cried
He had no sooner spoke, then a fox he has spied
"Hark! hark! Into cover! Come (?)", he cried
He had no sooner spoke, then a fox he has spied
"Tally ho" were the words, and then crack went the whip
And that being our signal, our hands we let slip
[Refrain]
"Hark, forward!", who cries, "Tally ho! Tally ho!"
"Hark, forward!", who cries, "Tally ho!"
[Verse 3]
Then up stepped Jim Norris, he cared not a pin
When he paused at the stream and his horse tumbled in
Then up stepped Jim Norris, he cared not a pin
When he paused at the stream and his horse tumbled in
And as he crossed over, he spied the bold wren
With his tongue hanging out, heading back to his den
[Refrain]
"Hark, forward!", who cries, "Tally ho! Tally ho!"
"Hark, forward!", who cries, "Tally ho!"
[Verse 4]
Our hounds and our horses, they were ever so good
As to never break cover or step through the wood
Our hounds and our horses, they were ever so good
As to never break cover or step through the wood
So fill up your glasses, and 'round let us drink
For while we are hunters, we never shall shrink
[Refrain]
"Hark, forward!", who cries, "Tally ho! Tally ho!"
"Hark, forward!", who cries, "Tally ho!"
"Hark, forward!", who cries, "Tally ho! Tally ho!"
"Hark, forward!", who cries, "Tally ho!"
Last Valentine's Day, bright fevers shone clear
And we hadn't been a-hunting in the space of one year
Last Valentine's Day, bright fevers shone clear
And we hadn't been a-hunting in the space of one year
Well I mounted Black Clover, that horse of great fame
For to hear the horns blow, and the words "Tally ho!"
[Refrain]
"Hark, forward!", who cries, "Tally ho! Tally ho!"
"Hark, forward!", who cries, "Tally ho!"
[Verse 2]
