Storyteller Lyrics

Storyteller lyrics

I'll tell you a story to pass on to the end

As told to me so long ago by my good friend

As we hollowed 'round the log fire

We laughed the whole night long

As he told me a tale, passed on to him

By a wanderin' vagabond



My friend told me the story

And I'll pass it on to you

It was handed down this century

And he swore that it was true



And in the morning I could see him fade

Was it fact or fiction? Who can say?

(Storyteller)

I believe ev'ry word you say

(Storyteller)

I bet you told a good tale in your day



He tried to tell the people

But the people wouldn't hear

Him spinning yarns

And telling tales from yesteryear



Then he smiled and finished his story

He said, "Will you pass it on for me?"

(Storyteller)

I'll tell that tale for you

(Storyteller)

Somehow I'll get your message through



My friend told me the story

And I'll pass it on to you

It was handed down this century

And I swear that it is true
