Lyrics
here you go!! thank you rebsie - big hug!!
I've toiled on me land and I've sown me seeds
To keep me crops a-swaying and me pigs in feed
But even with me subsidies I've gone against the wall
So when I see a poacher I give 'em me all
Chorus:
Get off my land, peasant
Keep your bloody hands off me pheasant
If I catch you scrumping you dirty bumpkin
You'll feel both me barrels up yer jacksie
I don't like them ramblers so I hedge in my farm
If I see 'em trying to cross it I inflict bodily harm
I hate the other farmers, they stay off my grass
They say you go organic ... organic my arse
My wife's gone and left me, my son's done the same
She's married an accountant, he's gone on the game
I don't let it bother me or get me grumpy
Still got me sheep and I've still got me scrumpy
Glossary of quaint English expressions:
scrumping = stealing fruit or vegetables
bumpkin = country person, usually of low intelligence
jacksie = arsehole
ramblers = people going for walks in the countryside
on the game = prostitution
scrumpy = very strong home-made cider
I've toiled on me land and I've sown me seeds
To keep me crops a-swaying and me pigs in feed
But even with me subsidies I've gone against the wall
So when I see a poacher I give 'em me all
Chorus:
Get off my land, peasant
Keep your bloody hands off me pheasant
If I catch you scrumping you dirty bumpkin
You'll feel both me barrels up yer jacksie
I don't like them ramblers so I hedge in my farm
If I see 'em trying to cross it I inflict bodily harm
I hate the other farmers, they stay off my grass
They say you go organic ... organic my arse
My wife's gone and left me, my son's done the same
She's married an accountant, he's gone on the game
I don't let it bother me or get me grumpy
Still got me sheep and I've still got me scrumpy
