Willowman (Tim Wilkinson) Well I met a man out walkin, on the highway hill turnpike Dressed in rags n sacks n twigs, I never seen the like He seemed part of the hedgerow, somehow come to life. Tuppence for a glass o beer, tuppence for some bread You must stand me this small sum kind sir to take you to your rest kind sir, he said For some call me the Greenman, some call me Bold Jack But to you I am the Willowman, now there's no turnin back I'll be tappin on your window at the dyin of the light You can give your soul to god but it's your ghost I'll take tonight Down unto the river Down unto the river through the wailin’ house I ran Down unto the river in the arms of the Willowman Down unto the river through the howlin’ hills I ran Down unto the river run the tears of the Willowman Well what of my poor children, I said what of my dear wife What is to become of them if I depart this life Is there nothin I can say to you to make you stay your hand? Give me just another year upon this green and pleasant land Don't take me down unto the river Down unto the river through the wailin’ house I ran Down unto the river in the arms of the Willowman Down unto the river through the howlin’ hills I ran Down unto the river run the tears of the Willowman Well some call me the Greenman, some call me Bold Jack But to you I am the Willowman, now there's no turnin back I'll be tappin on your window at the dyin of the light You can give your soul to god but it's your ghost I'll take tonight Down unto the river Down unto the river through the wailin’ house I ran Down unto the river in the arms of the Willowman Down unto the river through the howlin’ hills I ran Down unto the river run the tears of the Willowman
