June Tabor - The Oggie Man lyrics

Well the rain's softly falling and the oggy man's no more I can't hear him calling like he used to before As I pa** through the gateway, I heard the sergeant say The big boys are coming now, see their stand across the way And the rain's softly falling and the oggy man's no more The rain's softly falling and the oggy man's no more … It was there that she told me when she kissed me good bye There's no one could love you not half as much as I Our love will endure, dear, like a beacon in the squall Is eternal as the oggy man beside the dockyard wall But the rain's softly falling and the oggy man's no more The rain's softly falling and the oggy man's no more…
