Success to the Weavers Lyrics

Come ladies and gents I've a song ready made
And to sing it I'm sure you will not be afraid
For I'll tell you at once I'm a weaver by trade
Sing success to the weavers
The weavers forever hussah
Here are goods every day we're exporting by bales
And in merchandise ours as the night never fails
For each ship leaving port owes the weaver for sails
Sing success to the weavers
The weavers forever hussah

The ladies are pretty as all will confess
And he's stupid or blind I am sure who says less
But then to the weavers they're indebted for dress
Sing success to the weavers
The weavers forever hussah
But for us how your soldiers would oft times repent
When houseless to sleep on their knapsacks they're sent
But the weaver you see gives each soldier his tent
Sing success to the weavers
The weavers forever hussah

The queen in her robes may so gracefully stand
And her nobles about her may look great and grand
But they get all their cloth by the work of our hand
Sing success to the weavers
The weavers forever hussah
If exhausted you feel and by Morpheus you're beat
In the heat or the cold a small rest would be sweet
Just think of the weaver's fine blankets and sheets
Sing success to the weavers
The weavers forever hussah

So since we for mankind are sent here to weave
From our looms and our shuttles we'll not hardly grieve
My song is just ending so I'll take my leave
Sing success to the weavers
The weavers forever hussah

Cheers
Mark
