Blackdown

There is a treasure in Blackdown Take my hand we will search high and low There lies a treasure in Blackdown In Blackdown together we will go I know where at the lane leading to the gate Push it open and then go straight At the junction you'll turn right Take your time the sun's still bright There is a treasure in Blackdown Take my hand we will search high and low There lies a treasure in Blackdown In Blackdown together we will go I know where at the lane leading to the gate Push it open and then go straight At the junction you'll turn right Take your time the sun's still bright And when you see the oak just turn round I know you think the treasure can't be found Take a glance between the twisted trees Hear the wind sing in their leaves There is a treasure in Blackdown Take my hand we will search high and low There lies a treasure in Blackdown In Blackdown together we will go I know where at the lane leading to the gate Push it open and then go straight At the junction you'll turn right Take your time the sun's still bright And when you see the oak just turn round I know you think the treasure can't be found Take a glance between the twisted trees Hear the wind sing in their leaves There is a clue in the song my son Hidden in the words by Tennyson It can't be far be on your way From the serpent's trail do not stray You may be tempted by the ripe berries We can't always do as we please Oh don't touch a single speck of dust Everything belongs to the national trust When you reach a seat of stone Have a little rest on this throne Now get up and let us begin You're still cold at the temple of the wind Keep going it's not too far The longer you seek the warmer you are There is a treasure in Blackdown Take my hand we will search high and low There lies a treasure in Blackdown In Blackdown together we will go I know where There is a treasure in Blackdown In Blackdown when you are grown There lies a treasure in Blackdown You will find your way on your own
