One, two, three, fourIt's almost over, it's almost doneAnd you can't put the blame on anyoneIt's almost easy and it's almost funDid you get caught with your britches on?Hi, derry day in the month of MayWas the song the minstrel sangTo the good of Robin HoodMaid Marion and all the gangHis aim was mean and his shot was cleanAnd his suit was the shade of evergreenThe folks he knew, hadn't naught to fearWhen the sheriff was there, they were over hereHi, derry doon in the month of JuneWas the song the minstrel sungTo the good of Robin Hood'sGood name and a place to runHe loved strong ale and a run down jailWas the kind of a scene where he never failedThere was no man on the sea or landWho could get Maid Marion on the trailHi, derry day in the month of MayWas the song the minstrel sangTo the good of Robin HoodMaid Marion and all the gangIt's almost over, it's almost doneAnd you can't put the blame on MarionShe almost made it to the friar's gateBut the old wooden bridge wouldn't elevateHi, derry doon in the month of JuneWas the song the minstrel sungTo the good of Robin Hood'sGood name and a place to run
