William Reedy: Music
Have a Feast Here Tonight
(Words and Music by Charles Monroe, arrangement by William Reedy with John Reedy)
There's a rabbit in the log and I ain't got my dog
How will I get him, I know
I'll get me a briar and I'll twist it in his hair
That's the way I'll get him, I know, I know, I know
That's the way I'll get him I know
I'll get me a briar and I'll twist it in his hair
That's the way I'll get him, I know
I'll build me a fire and I'll cook that old hare
Broil him in the flames and make him brown
Have a Feast Here Tonight while the moon's shining bright
Before I find myself a place to lie down, to lie down, to lie down
Before I find myself a place to lie down
Have a Feast Here Tonight while the moon's shining bright
Before I find myself a place to lie down
Going down the track with the clothes on my back
Soles on my shoes nearly gone
Little ways ahead, there's a farmer's shed
That's where I'll rest my weary bones, weary bones weary bones
That's where I'll rest my weary bones
Little ways ahead, there's a farmer's shed
That's where I'll rest my weary bones
Weary bones, weary bones
That's where I'll rest my weary bones
Little ways ahead there's a farmer's shed
That's where I'll rest my weary bones
