Arrest These Merry Gentlemen Kate Rusby

[Verse 1]
Arrest these merry gentlemen and make them go away
Arrest these merry gentlemen, it may be Christmas day
But they're singing and they're shouting and they're causing an affray

[Refrain]
So take tidings to Constable Joy, Constable Joy
So take tidings to Constable Joy

[Verse 2]
Arrest these merry gentlemen who are messing in the street
They're dirty and they're raggеd now, no boots upon their feet
And they're not thе type of person who we really wish to meet

[Refrain]
So take tidings to Constable Joy, Constable Joy
So take tidings to Constable Joy

[Verse 3]
Arrest these merry gentlemen, they're rough unruly louts
And now they've started arguing, loudly they do shout
And soon I think we'll see some Christmas boxing breaking out

[Refrain]
So take tidings to Constable Joy, Constable Joy
So take tidings to Constable Joy
