Fiddler`s Green Lyrics

Fiddler`s Green lyrics

September Seventeen
For a girl I know, it's Mother's Day
Her son has gone
alee
And that's where he will stay
Wind on the weathervane
Tearing
blue eyes sailor-mean
As Falstaff sings a sorrowful refrain
For a boy in
Fiddler's Green

His tiny knotted heart
Well I guess it never worked
to good
The timber tore apart
And the water gorged the wood
You can
hear her whispered prayer
For men at masts that always lean
That the same
wind that moves her hair
Moves her boy through Fiddler's
Green

Nothings changed anyways
Nothings changed anyways
Or any
time today

He doesn't know a soul
And there's nowhere that he's
really been
But he won't travel long alone
No, not in Fiddler's
Green
Balloons all filled with rain
As children's eyes turn
sleepy-mean
And Falstaff sings a sorrowful refrain
For a boy in Fiddler's
Green
