Half Sick of Shadows by LEE TORRANCE with George Baker Jo Manning Wilson and Henry Knowles
In the fields the corn stood high
And in the distance met the sky,
As a knight went riding, riding by, On the road to London
Town.
And he did love a fair lady,
Whose heart was his entirely,
She waited for him faithfully
While he rode to London
Town.
Minstrel's song composed by STEPHEN WILLIS
Directed by GRAHAM GAULD
