In my Little Thatched Hut - The Fiery Furnaces

In my little thatched hut

Where blue-green grass grows by the brook

I lounge and i look

(i lounge and i look, i lounge and i look)

For my own true love to return

To come rowing in his rowboat back.

In my little thatched hut

Where blue-green grass grows by the brook

I lounge and i look

(i lounge and i look, i lounge and i look)

For my own true love to return

To come rowing in his rowboat back

I’ll go to the flower stall

And get a violet violet to put in my jet black hair

And make him tell me which one is the more fair.

And in the meantime i cry

In my little thatched hut

Where blue-green grass grows by the brook

I lounge and i look

(i lounge and i look, i lounge and i look)

For my own true love to return

To come rowing in his rowboat back

In my little thatched hut

Where blue-green grass grows by the brook

I lounge and i look

(i lounge and i look, i lounge and i look)

For my own true love to return

To come rowing in his rowboat back

Boat back!

I’ll go to the flower stall

And get a violet violet to put in my jet black hair

And make him tell me which one is the more fair

And in the meantime i cry

But what does it matter

Because when i see him again, it’ll be tears of joy

Tears of joy, tears of joy, tears of joy, tears of joy

Tears of joy, tears of joy, tears of joy, tears of joy

In my little thatched hut

Where blue-green grass grows by the brook

I lounge and i look

(i lounge and i look, i lounge and i look)

For my own true love to return

To come rowing in his rowboat back
