All Around My Hat - Status Quo
Written by:Traditional
All around my hat
I will wear the green willow
And all around my hat
For a twelve month and a day
And if anyone should ask me
The reason why I'm wearing it
It's all for my true love
Who's far far away
Fare the well cold winter
And fare the well cold frost
Nothing have I gained
But my own true love I've lost
I'll sing and I'll be merry
When occasion and I do seek
She's a false deluded young girl
Let her go farewell she
And all around my hat I will wear the green willow
And all around my hat
For a twelve month and a day
And if anyone should ask me
The reason why I'm wearing it
It's all for my true love
Who's far far away
Last night she bought me
A fine diamond ring but
She thought to have deprived me
Of a far better thing
But I've being careful
I'd love us all to see
She's a false deluded young girl
Let her go farewell she
And all around my hat I will wear the green willow
And all around my hat
For a twelve month and a day
And if anyone should ask me
The reason why I'm wearing it
It's all for my true love
Who's far far away
All around my hat I will wear the green willow
All around my hat
For a twelve month and a day
And if anyone should ask me
The reason why I'm wearing it
It's all for my true love
Who's far far away
