Jog Along Bess Vashti Bunyan

[Chorus]
Jog along Bess, hop along May
Squeak along Blue, it's a walk-along day
It's a long road and weary are we
Bubble on kettle and make us all some tea

[Verse 1]
Once there was a gypsy man
Selling flowers from a baker's van
Bess, she pulled him 'round the town
Pulled her wagon all old and brown
'Til one day we took her away
Painted her wagon bright and gay
Now she finds she's travelling north
No more wandering back and forth

[Chorus]
Jog along Bess, hop along May
Squeak along Blue, it's a walk-along day
It's a long road and weary are we
Bubble on kettle and make us all some tea

[Verse 2]
Once there was an Afghan hound
Loved by no one and pushed around
Tied up in a stable yard
Tangled and timid and howling hard
'Til one day we took her away
We called her Magog, shortened to May
She hurt a paw, made it sore
Now she runs on three legs instead of four
