Walking through the hall as if he were alive
~#**************#~
And with such an air of pain and sorrow
~#**************#~
Trying to get back to the other side
~#**************#~
I have heard the tale of when King Richard
~#**************#~
Was granted a relic of the Holy Cross
~#**************#~
But from him twas stolen when in prison
~#**************#~
Now hes grieving for the loss
~#**************#~
Oh a lack a day
~#**************#~
May good fortune come his way
~#**************#~
Oh a lack a lee
~#**************#~
May his spirit rest in peace
~#**************#~
I have seen the sword of old King Richard
~#**************#~
Hanging with a scabbard at the fireside
~#**************#~
Such a mighty blade of Spanish silver
~#**************#~
Keen and flashing in the firelight
~#**************#~
I have read the words of old King Richard
~#**************#~
Standing at the walls of Jerusalem
~#**************#~
When he raised his voice to exhort his people
~#**************#~
Ready for the battle with the Saracen
~#**************#~
Oh a lack a day
~#**************#~
May good fortune come his way
~#**************#~
Oh a lack a lee
~#**************#~
May his spirit rest in peace
~#**************#~
Oh a lack a day
~#**************#~
May good fortune come his way
~#**************#~
Oh a lack a lee
~#**************#~
May his spirit rest in peace
~#**************#~
I have seen the ghost of old King Richard
~#**************#~
Walking through the hall as if he were alive
