I'm just a simple balladeer
With some small tales to tell.
I travel hill and countryside
With hopes to do it well.
My knapsack and my walking stick
Are friends who serve me well.
I'm just a simple balladeer
With some small tales to tell.
Brave knights traverse the countryside
Bedecked on gallant steeds.
With reverence and awe I tell
Of all their wondrous deeds.
The ladies lie at their commands
To give them rightful due
But I am just a balladeer
And I'm in love with you.
I'm just a simple balladeer
The roaming life I choose.
The world my inspiration...
Mother Nature is my muse.
With stories told of deeds so bold
I honor God and king.
I'm just a simple balladeer
With some small song I sing.
The king, resplendant on his throne,
Has wealth beyond compare,
Bedazzles every lady with
His strong majestic air.
Protector of the land is he.
His subjects serve him true
But I am just a balladeer
And I'm in love with you.
I'm just a simple balladeer.
I travel with the dawn
With hopes to find a passage through
The mists of Avalon.
All forest creatures know my name...
I honor bird and fawn.
I'm just a simple balladeer
Who travels with the dawn.
The sailors in their fighting ships
Are rulers of the seas.
With chests of gold and wealth untold
They have all things they please.
Heroic deeds abound as these men
Sail the ocean blue
But I am just a balladeer
And I'm in love with you.
I'm just a simple balladeer.
My memory is my worth.
'Twas not my fate to be a knight
Nor come from royal birth.
I have no gold to offer one
Except for love that's true.
I'm just a simple balladeer
And I'm in love with you.
You will go on...I know you must.
Your gallant knight awaits
Or king upon his golden throne
To bid you through his gates
But, when the minstrels sing at night
Of love devout and true
They'll sing about this balladeer
And how I feel for you.
With some small tales to tell.
I travel hill and countryside
With hopes to do it well.
My knapsack and my walking stick
Are friends who serve me well.
