Lyrics: William Shakespeare

What shall he have that killed the deer?
His leathern skin and horns to wear.
Then sing him home.
Take thou no scorn to wear the horn;
It was a crest ere thou wert born.
Thy father's father wore it,
And thy own father bore it.
The horn, the horn, the lusty horn
Is not a thing to laugh to scorn.
