Over The Hills (Loki Version)

 Over The Hills (Loki Version)

A few seasons ago Loki complained that we had too few songs of our own, so unthinkingly we allowed him to write a few new songs for us. When he revealed the dozen or so songs that he had written, we were somewhat surprised to find them all about him. This is the one that has stuck best.

There's twenty shillings on the drum Loki where the hells it gone?? Now he's got cash he's gone to play When over the hills and far away

CHORUS

O'er the hills that are a-flame We told Loki never again He drinks so much we can't obey Over the hills and far awa

Loki really shouldn't drink

Because he never stops to think of his head ache the following day over the hills and far away

Chorus

Odin says that you'll do well

when your standing at the gates of hell but hev'n-ward you'll always pray though its over the hills and far away

Chorus

Loki's here and Loki's there

Lost his sword, without a prayer so how will he keep the beasts at bay over the hills and far away

Chorus

Loki has just sung a song

even though it didn't last long he'll start again if we don't pay over the hills and far away

Chorus

The story tellers tale is true

as he describes Loki's view you'll all marvel at his display over the hills and far away

Chorus

Loki, lord of all naught but drink

he will vomit in the sink he'll try to lead us come-what-may over the hills and far away

Chorus
