CLÁSSICOS PARA A VIDA ETERNA

ALL AROUND MY HAT (1976) STEELEYE SPAN

Maddy Prior já havia aparecido nos clássicos com Mike Oldfield em "Incantations". Hoje, ei-la com sua banda de folk-rock inglês, em sessão caipira britânica.

All around my hat I will wear the green willow

And all around my hat for a twelve month and a day

And if anyone should ask me the reason why I'm wearing it

All around my hat I will wear the green willow

And all around my hat for a twelve month and a day

He's a false deluding young man, let him go, farewell he and

----

All around my hat I will wear the green willow

And all around my hat for a twelve month and a day

And if anyone should ask me the reason why I'm wearing it

It's all for my true love who's far, far away
