Say, where did you come from, good man, Oh, where did you then pass? It is out of the land Egypt, Between an ox and an ass. 3.Oh, if you come out of Egypt, man, One thing I fain I known, Whether a blessed Virgin Mary Sprung from an Holy Ghost? 4. For if this is true, is true, good man, That you've been telling to me, That the roasted cock do crow three times In the place where they did stand. 5. Oh, it's straight away the cock did fetch, And feathered to your own hand, Three times a roasted cock did crow, On the place where they did stand. [Alt] 5. Oh, it's straight away the cock did rise, All feathered to the hand; Three times the roasted cock did crow On the dish where it did stand. 6. Joseph, Jesus and Mary Were traveling for the west, When Mary grew a-tired She might sit down and rest. 7. They traveled further and further, The weather being so warm, Till they came unto some husbandman A-sowing of his corn. 8. Come husbandman! cried Jesus, From over speed and pride, And carry home your ripened corn That you've been sowing this day. 9. For to keep your wife and family From sorrow, grief and pain, And keep Christ in your remembrance Till the time comes round again!' Browse Carols: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z #
