Coney Pie

This is a traditional hunting song of Tookland.

I hunt all day midst the curing hay,
Just to catch a brace of coney dinner,
For a coney pie brings a gleam to eye,
Such a pie is sure to be a winner!

Chorus:

And I'll sing you a Hey!
If you make it this way:
With a crust as flaky as can be!
Hey, ho! Bake it up this day,
And I'll ask you--hey!,
Pretty lassie, will you marry me?

Additional verses:

I'll sit all morn 'midst the ripening corn,
Just to catch a brace of coney dinner,
For a coney pie brings a gleam to eye,
Such a pie is sure to be a winner! (Chorus)

I'll bravely go through the blowing snow,
Just to catch a brace of coney dinner,
For a coney pie brings a gleam to eye,
Such a pie is sure to be a winner! (Chorus)

I'll lie and watch in the garden patch
Just to catch a brace of coney dinner,
For a coney pie brings a gleam to eye,
Such a pie is sure to be a winner! (Chorus)
