Steeleye Span - Batchelors Hall lyrics

I rode seven horses all to d**h I rode them till they had no breath I wore five saddles to the trees None of those girls will marry me. Those women will fret, those women will fuss They spend five hours before their gla** The devil take all, I'll have no money at all Always stay single, keep Batchelors' Hall. Stay stay close to my door Batchelors' Hall, Batchelors' Hall, I'll always stay single, keep Batchelors' Hall. The women round here, they live by the door They hear but a word, and repeat it twice o'er Then they add it as much as they can Always stay single a bachelor man. Batchelors' Hall is always the best If you're sick drunk or sober it's always a rest No woman to scold you, no children to bawl Always stay single, keep Batchelors' Hall. Stay stay close to my door Batchelors' Hall, Batchelors' Hall, I'll always stay single, keep Batchelors' Hall.
