Weaving Song Songtext
von Stick in the Wheel

I′m a weaver, a master weaver
I've got a loom where the best cloth′s made
Plain cloth, twill, brocade or satin
I'm the master of me trade
Shed the warp and fly the shuttle
Beat the reed, the weft is laid


I can wind a flying bobbin
I can warp a theme of thread
I can weave a sheet of linen
Fit to grace the royal bed
Lift the heel and fly the shuttle
Beat the reed, the weft is laid

Hear the din of loom and shuttle
Weaving is a noisy trade
See how even, soft and gentle
Lies the cloth when it is made
Lies the cloth when it is made
