Oh, Salisbury Plain is bleak and bare
All least so I've heart many people declare
For I fairly confess I never was there
Oh, Salisbury Plain is bleak and bare
All least so I've heart many people declare
For I fairly confess I never was there
Not a shrub nor a tree
Nor a bush can we see
No hedges, no ditches, no gates, no styles
Much less a house or a cottage for miles
It's a very sad thing to be cought in the rain
When night comes on Salisbury Plain
No many miles from Salisbury town
Maybe you've seen when you get around
The standing stones of great reknown
And the devil did he dare
Take them from Kildare
Did he hide, did he ride, did he fly, so high
Up and away, far away in teh sky
I bet he never got caught in the rain
When night came on Salisbury Plain
Salisbury Plain, Salisbury Plain, Salisbury Plain
Salisbury Plain, Salisbury Plain, Salisbury Plain
Well, do you know how they got there
Oh Salisbury Plain so bleak and bare
A monument so fine and rare
And Merlin, did he hurry here from South Cadbury
Said for Arthur and England his magical rhymes
Must have really been the sight of the times
I wonder if we got caught in the rain
When night came on Salisbury Plain
Salisbury Plain, Salisbury Plain, Salisbury Plain
Salisbury Plain, Salisbury Plain, Salisbury Plain
