Songs The Minstrel Sang (Endless Wire) 2:49
	It's almost over it's almost done And you can't put the blame on anyone It's almost easy and it's almost fun Did you get caught with your britches on Hi derry day in the month of May Was the song the minstrel sang To the good of Robin Hood Maid Marion and all the gang His aim was mean and his shot was clean And his suit was the shade of evergreen The folks he knew hadn't naught to fear When the sheriff was there they were over here Hi derry doon in the month of June Was the song the minstrel sung To the good of Robin Hood's Good name and a place to run He loved strong ale and a run down jail Was the kind of a scene where he never failed There was no man on the sea or land Who could get Maid Marion on the trail Hi derry day in the month of May Was the song the minstrel sang To the good of Robin Hood Maid Marion and all the gang It's almost over it's almost done And you can't put the blame on Marion She almost made it to the friar's gate But the old wooden bridge wouldn't elevate Hi derry doon in the month of June Was the song the minstrel sung To the good of Robin Hood's Good name and a place to run
