Songs > Robin Hood

         Em                       Am      Em
When Robin Hood was twenty-one
           Em                               Am  Em
With a low down down by the river down
     Em                        Am   Em
He then did meet with Little John
Em               D       Em    Em               D     Em
Down by the river down, down by the river down

They met upon a narrow bridge
With a low down down by the river down
And neither one away would give
Down by the river down, down by the river down

They flourished staves and sticks of oak
With a low down down by the river down
And heads they bashed and bones they broke
Down by the river down, down by the river down

Then John struck Robin such a blow
With a low down down by the river down
That the topped poor Robin to the tide below
Down by the river down, down by the river down

You've won you've won cried bold Robin Hood
With a low down down by the river down
Come join us in the merry green wood
Down by the river down, down by the river down

So John put on the Lincoln green
With a low down down by the river down
And he joined with them in the greenwood glen
Down by the river down, down by the river down
