As I was a walking one morning last autumn
I overheard some nobles foxhunting
Between some noblemen
And the Duke of Wellington
So early before the day was dawning.
Chorus:
There was Dido, Bendigo,
And Gentry he was there-o
Traveller he never looked behind him.
There was Countess, Rover,
Bonnie Lass, and Jover
These were the hounds that could find him.
He's made straight way for the river
Well the fox he has jumped in
But a hound jumped after him
It was traveller who straited him forever.
Chorus:
4. Well they run across the plain
But they soon returned again
The fox nor the hounds never failing
It's been just twelve months today,
Since I heard the squire say,
Hark, forward then me brave hounds forever.
