The Hazards Of Love 1 Lyrics - The Hazards Of Love - Decemberists

[First Voice:] 

My true love went riding out in white and green and gray 

Past the pale of Offa's wall where she was wont to stray 

And there she came upon a white and wounded fawn 

Singing, ["Oh, the hazards of love"] 

She, being full of charity, a credit to her sex, 

Sought to right the fawn's hind legs when here her plans were vexed 

The taiga shifted strange the beast began to change 

Singing, ["Oh, the hazards of love."] 

Singing, ["Oh, the hazards of love."] 

You'll learn soon enough the prettiest whistles won't wrestle the thistles undone, undone

Fifteen lithesome maidens lay alone in their bower 

Fourteen occupations paid to pass the idle hour 

But Margaret heaves a sigh her hands clasped to her thigh 

Singing, ["Oh, the hazards of love."] 

Singing, ["Oh, the hazards of love."] 

You'll learn soon enough the prettiest whistles won't wrestle the thistles undone, undone 

Undone, undone, undone
