The Journeyman's Grace

Fairport Convention

    Continues after the ad

    Someone told me there's a grace that leads you straight from place to place
    And you always leave the road behind you
    You don't need your horses shod, just a dowser and his rod
    Leave your mistress, she won't need to find you
    (Chorus)
    Oh please, journeyman, help me on my way
    Oh please, help me please, I won't be afraid
    Oh please, journeyman, help me on my way
    Oh please, help me please, I won't be afraid
    Leave my weary flesh and bone to a circle made of stone
    Take me to the mountains for my pleasure
    And if the dead man won't depart, drive a stake into his heart
    And let me ere deliver him his leisure
    (Chorus)
    (Chorus)
    When you see the race is run and the dark has just begun
    Come on with the few and leave the many
    There you'll find the journeyman with a lantern in his hand
    He'll show you a good time for a penny
    (Chorus)
