Luyện nghe bài hát The woodcutter's song

Words traditional English, music RW with fugal ideas by Chris Caswell

Oak logs warm you well
are old and dry
Logs of pine will sweetly
But the sparks fly
Birchs long will burn too
scarce at all sir
Hawthorn logs are good to
are cut well in the fall sir

Surely you find
no compare with the hard wood logs
That's cut in the time

Holly logs burn like wax
You could burn green
Elm logs burn smouldering flax
no flame to be seen
Beech logs for winter
Yew logs as sir
Green logs it is a crime
For any man to sir

Surely you will
There's no compare with the hard logs
cut in the winter time

Pear logs and apple
They will scent your
and cherry logs the dogs
They like flowers of broom
But ash smooth and grey
Buy them or old, sir
and buy up all come your way
worth their weight in gold sir
