Barleycorn Lyrics

Spake John Barleycorn, "In my heart is a valley
The [?] should be exalted, I will walk through this valley
My steps seem to falter, in my heart is a valley
The [?] should be exalted, I will walk through this valley
My steps seem to falter

Hallelujah, hallelujah

And from the west came, money on their mind
For the blood of St. John, they would murder his kind
Then from the west came, money on their mind
For the blood of St. John, they would murder his kind

Hallelujah, hallelujah
Ah ah ah, ah
Ah ah
Ah ah ah, ah
Ah ah

There's a [1:37?] [caught a felon?]
John Barleycorn is ours now
There's a tale in the telling
John Barleycorn must die now
There's a [1:47?] [caught a felon?]
John Barleycorn is ours now
There's a tale in the telling
John Barleycorn must die now

Hallelujah, hallelujah
Ah ah ah, ah
Ah ah
Ah ah ah, ah ah ah



Hallelujah, hallelujah

The season to destroy you
Comes year after year
It's the same darn machine
Taking ear after ear
The season to destroy you
Comes year after year
It's the same darn machine
Taking ear after ear

Hallelujah, hallelujah
Ah ah ah, ah
Ah ah
Ah ah ah, ah
Ah ah
