Lyrics

Scarlet: There is no land like England,
Whate’er the light of day be;
There are no hearts like English hearts,
Such hearts of oak as they be.
There is no land like England,
Whate’er the light of day be;
There are no men like Englishmen,
So tall and bold as they be.
Chorus: And these will strike for England,
And man and maid be free,
To foil and spoil the tyrant
Beneath the greenwood tree.
Scarlet: There is no land like England,
Whate’er the light of day be;
There are no wives like English wives,
So fair and chaste as they be.
There is no land like England,
Whate’er the light of day be;
There are no maids like English maids,
So beautiful as they be.
Chorus: And these shall wed with freemen,
And all their sons be free,
To sing the songs of England
Beneath the greenwood tree.
Written by: Alfred, Lord Tennyson, Sir Arthur Sullivan
