The Journeyman's Grace - Fairport Convention
Someone told me there's a grace that leads you straight from place to place And you always leave the road behind you You don't need your horses shod, just a dowser and his rod Leave your mistress, she won't need to find you (Chorus) Oh please, journeyman, help me on my way Oh please, help me please, I won't be afraid Oh please, journeyman, help me on my way Oh please, help me please, I won't be afraid Leave my weary flesh and bone to a circle made of stone Take me to the mountains for my pleasure And if the dead man won't depart, drive a stake into his heart And let me ere deliver him his leisure (Chorus) (Chorus) When you see the race is run and the dark has just begun Come on with the few and leave the many There you'll find the journeyman with a lantern in his hand He'll show you a good time for a penny (Chorus)
