Jake has gone to wear the horn,
It was the crest when you were born.
Your father's father wore it then.
His father wore it too.

Chorus:
Hal-an-toe, Jolly lum-alow.
We were up long before the day-o,
To welcome in the summer,
To welcome in the May-o.
For Summer is a-comin' in,
And Winter's gone away-o.

What happened to the Spaniards,
That made so great a boast-o?
O' they shall eat the feathered goose,
And we shall eat the roast-o.

Robin Hood and Little John,
Have both come to the Faire-o,
And we will to the merry greenwood,
To hunt the buck and hare-o.

God bless our Gloriana (God save the Queen!)
God send her power and might-o.
God send good peace to En-ga-land.
Send peace by day and night-o.
