There was a king who built a ship And sailed away To look for gold in the hills of Scone Far away The only gold in the hills of Scone Is gold you'll never own It belongs to the giant Longbone Far away The only gold I've ever known It all belonged to the giant Longbone His teeth are sharp, his claws are long So they say His eyes are like a fire that burns Far away We will go to the hills of Scone We'll find the giant Longbone We'll turn him into stone Far away The only gold I've ever known It all belonged to the giant Longbone Through the rain and through the snow We sailed away To the land where only fools go Far away We stepped onto the shore And then we heard him roar He must have seen us We tried to hide, we tried to run Run away He killed the crew, he threw the boat Far away And then he said "We are alone I am the giant Longbone You shold have stayed at home Far away" The only gold I've ever known It all belonged to the giant Longbone
