[Verse 1]
The mistletoe hung in the old castle hall
The holly branch shone on the old oak wall
The baron's retainers were blithe and were gay
A-keeping their Christmas holiday
The baron beheld with a father's pride
His beautiful child, young Lovell's bride
She with the bright eyes was destined to be
The star of the goodly company
[Chorus]
Oh, the mistletoe bough
Oh, the mistletoe bough
[Verse 2]
"I'm weary of dancing, of dancing," she cried
"Here tarry a moment, I'll hide, I'll hide
And Lovell, be sure you're the first one to trace
The clue to my secret hiding place"
Away then she ran and their friends all began
Each tower to search and each stairway to scan
Lovell he cried, "Oh, now where does thou hide
I'm lonely without thee, my own dear bride"
[Chorus]
Oh, the mistletoe bough
Oh, the mistletoe bough
Oh, the mistletoe bough
Oh, the mistletoe bough
The mistletoe hung in the old castle hall
The holly branch shone on the old oak wall
The baron's retainers were blithe and were gay
A-keeping their Christmas holiday
The baron beheld with a father's pride
His beautiful child, young Lovell's bride
She with the bright eyes was destined to be
The star of the goodly company
[Chorus]
Oh, the mistletoe bough
Oh, the mistletoe bough
[Verse 2]
"I'm weary of dancing, of dancing," she cried
"Here tarry a moment, I'll hide, I'll hide
And Lovell, be sure you're the first one to trace
The clue to my secret hiding place"
Away then she ran and their friends all began
Each tower to search and each stairway to scan
Lovell he cried, "Oh, now where does thou hide
I'm lonely without thee, my own dear bride"
[Chorus]
Oh, the mistletoe bough
Oh, the mistletoe bough
Oh, the mistletoe bough
Oh, the mistletoe bough
