Tom, Tom was a piper's son,
He learned to play when he was young,
And all the tune that he could play
Was "Over the hills and far away."
Over the hills, and a great way off,
The wind will blow my top-knot off.
Now, Tom with his pipe made such a noise
That he well pleased both the girls and boys,
And they always stopped to hear him play
"Over the hills and far away."
