Padstow Songtext
von Steeleye Span

Unite and unite and let us all unite
For summer is a-coming today
And whither we are going, we all will unite
In the merry morning of May

The young men of Padstow they might if they would
For summer is a-coming today

They might have built a garden with the white rose and the bed
In the merry morning of May


Oh, where are the young men that now do advance
For summer is a-coming today
Oh, some they are in England and some they are in France
In the merry morning of May

Oh, where is King George? Oh, where is he?
Oh, he′s out in his longboat all on the salt sea
Oh, up flies the kite, down falls the lark
Oh, and Ursula Burton, she had an old yaw
And she died in her long bark, oh

With a merry ring and with a joyful spring
For summer is a-coming today
Oh, happy are the little birds and merrily they do sing
In the merry morning of May

Unite and unite and let us all unite
For summer is a-coming today
And whither we are going, we all will unite
In the merry morning of May

Huzzah!
Why I oughta
