Lyrics for Through The Iron Gate

Through the iron gate And he's gone See the goslings, the ducklings, the piglets, the lambs He'd let out little sob Sometimes he'd still wish that he slept In a cot by his mom and dad's bed He'd cry, "No!" "I'm left here, and I'm here on my own." Hear the leaves soft lift hush Make him blush Pair of welly boots, the crows in cahoots, the eggs on the hob, the corns on their cob He'd let out little sob Sometimes he'd still wish that he left Shot through like a bolt into mad heifer's head He'd cry, "No!" "I'm left here, and I'm here on my own." Sometimes he'd still wish that he left Shot through like a bull But, no!
