lyrics
Thornehagh-Moor Woods [traditional, adapted]
I with my dogs went out one night—
the moon shone clear, and the stars gave light—
o’er hedges and ditches, gates and rails,
with a couple of lurchers close at my heels,
to catch a fine buck down in Thornehagh-Moor Fields.
A poacher’s life is the life for me;
a poacher I will always be.
That very first night, we had bad luck:
one of my very best dogs got shot.
He come to me all bloody and lame;
right sorry I was for to see the same,
him not being able to follow the game.
A poacher’s life is the life for me;
a poacher I will always be.
I searched his wounds, and found them slight,
done by a gamekeeper out of spite.
I will take a stick right tight in my hand, and
range the woods till I find that man;
I will tan his old hide right well if I can.
A poacher’s life is the life for me;
a poacher I will always be.
