作曲:Traditional

In Nottamun Town not a soul would look up

Not a soul would look up not a soul would look down

Not a soul would look up not a soul would look down

To show me the way to fair Nottamun Town

I rode a big horse it was called a grey mare

Grey mane and grey tail green stripes down her back

Grey mane and grey tail green stripes down her back

There want a hair on her be what was coal black

She stood so still she threw me to the dirt

She tore my hide and bruised my shirt

From saddle to stirrup I mounted again

And on my ten toes I rode over the plain

Saw the King and Queen and the company of men

A working behind and riding before

A stark naked drummer a marching along

With his hands in his bosom a beating his drum

Sat down on a hot cold frozen stone

Ten thousand stood around me yet I was alone

Took my hat in my hands to keep my head warm

Ten thousand got drownded that never was born
