about

A traditional song, given a crybb makeover. It appears in various forms and in many countries. It tells the story of a young lady, preyed upon by a dastardly fox.

lyrics

One evening as I rambled
Among the leaves so green
I overheard a woman
Converse with Reynardine
Her hair was black
Hers eye were blue
Her lips as red as wine
And he smiled to gaze upon her
That sly old Reynardine, Reynardine.

She said "kind sir, be civil
My company forsake
For in my own opinion
I fear you are some rake"
"Oh no" he said
"No rake am I
Brought up on Venus train
But I. Seeking for concealment
All above the lonesome plain, lonesome plain.

Your beauty so enticed me
I could not pass it by
So it's with my gun I'll guard you
All along the mountains high
And if by chance
You should look for me
Perhaps you'll not me find
For I'll be in my castle
Enquirer for Reynardine, Reynardine.

Sun went dark she followed him
His teeth did brightly shine
He led her up the mountain
That sly old Reynardine.
