In Nottamun town not a soul would look up 
Not a soul would look up, not a soul would look down 
Not a soul would look up, not a soul would look down 
     (                              )Dm 
To show me the way to fair Nottamun town 
 
And the king and the queen and the company more 
Came walking behind and a riding before 
Come a stark naked drummer beating a drum 
With his hand on his bosom came riding along 
 
Sat down on a hard hot cold frozen stone 
Ten thousand stood round me but I was alone 
Took my heart in my hand to keep myself warm 
Ten thousand was drowned that never was born
