False Knight on the Road Songtext
von Fleet Foxes

"Oh, where will you go so late?" Said the knight on the road?
"I′m going to meet my God," said the child as he stood
And he stood, and he stood, and it's well that he stood
"I′m going to meet my God," said the child as he stood

"Oh, how will you go by land?" Said the knight on the road
"With a strong staff in my hand," said the child as he stood
And he stood, and he stood, and it's well that he stood
"With a strong staff in my hand," said the child as he stood


"Oh, how will you go by sea?" Said the knight on the road
"With a good boat underneath," said the child as he stood
And he stood, and he stood, and it's well that he stood
"With a good boat underneath," said the child as he stood

"Oh, I think I hear a bell," said the knight on the road
"It′s ringing you to hell," said the child as he stood
And he stood, and he stood, and it was well that he stood
"It′s ringing you to hell," said the child as he stood

"Oh, where will go so late?" Said the knight on the road
"I'm going to meet my God," said the child as he stood
And he stood, and he stood, and it′s well that he stood
"I'm going to meet my God," said the child as he stood
