Lyrics
Winter time has gone and past-o
Summer time has come at last-o
We shall sing and dance the day
And follow the 'obby 'oss that bring the May
Hail, hail the first of May-o
For it is the first summer's day-o
Cast your cares and fears away
Drink to the old 'oss on the first of May
Bluebells they are starting to ring-o
And true love it is the thing-o
Love on any other day
Is never quite the same as on the first of May
Hail, hail the first of May-o
For it is the first summer's day-o
Cast your cares and fears away
Drink to the old 'oss on the first of May
Never let it come to pass-o
That we fail to raise a glass-o
Unto those now gone away
And left us the 'obby 'oss that bring the May
Hail, hail the first of May-o
For it is the first summer's day-o
Cast your cares and fears away
Drink to the old 'oss on the first of May
Winter time has gone and past-o
Summer time has come at last-o
We shall sing and dance the day
And follow the 'obby 'oss that bring the May
Hail, hail the first of May-o
For it is the first summer's day-o
Cast your cares and fears away
Drink to the old 'oss on the first of May
Hail, hail the first of May-o
For it is the first summer's day-o
Cast your cares and fears away
Drink to the old 'oss on the first of May
Hail, hail the first of May-o
For it is the first summer's day-o
Cast your cares and fears away
Drink to the old 'oss on the first of May
