Hob and Colin Yule Is Come Lyrics



Hob and Colin Yule Is Come Lyrics




1. Hob & Colin, Yule is come,
Calling for your fife and drum;
If ye strike up, as ye can,
Turelurelu, p'tapatap'n,
I will carol; so will Jan
With a lassie, Joan or Nan.

2. Thus men gave, in olden days,
To the Prince of princes, praise:
Wherefore, an ye like my plan,
Turelurelu, patapatapan,
Dress your drum-stick, you; and span,
You, your reed, my piper Pan.

3. Christmas tolls the devil's knell;
Thanked be Emmanuel.
So, from England to Japan,
Turelurelu, patapatapan,
Whether town or country man,
Sing it, ring it, ran-tan-ran.

4. God and man accordant are:
Not so, fife and drum; ye jar.
Yet nought would I sooner than
Turelurelu, patapatapan.
Fore our Lady and Saint Ann,
'Tis high time the thing began.
